Visit the free museums in Glasgow – Scotland’s largest city has a lot to offer in terms of culture and art, much of it accessible completely for free.
No matter the time of year, you should be prepared for rain at all times on a visit to Scotland! While the summers can be warm and pleasant, it could rain at any time, so at least bring an umbrella! Winters in Scotland do get cold, and there is often snow, especially in the Highlands, but in the two major cities, Edinburgh and Glasgow in the south of the country, it’s not too bad, and anyway there is always cool stuff going on indoors that the bad weather doesn’t matter too much! Of course, visiting Scotland at New Year (or as it’s locally known, Hogmanay) is an unforgettable experience, and one definitely worth trying once in your life.
