When travelling in Scotland, you’re never too far from a heritage site relating to Mary Queen of Scots. Linlithgow Palace is also one such site!
👑 Mary Queen of Scots was born here in 1542 which was a convenient rest stop for royals during the Stewart period when they were traveling from Edinburgh to Stirling Castle.

Scotland Walks! 🚶‍♀️This is the walk to the Falls of the Clyde, one of the most famous Waterfalls in Scotland!

William Wallace and his men made their escape through the Clyde Forest in the 13th century, after slaughtering Sheriff Hesselrigg at Lanark Castle and stayed in a nearby cave.

When the roads to New Lanark started improving in the 19th century, the falls attracted notable visitors such as J. M. W. Turner and William Wordsworth.
