Edinburgh
United Kingdom > Scotland > Edinburgh
Some have called Edinburgh the Athens of the North for a variety of reasons. The earliest comparison between the two cities showed that they had a similar topography, with the Castle Rock of Edinburgh performing a similar role to the Athenian Acropolis. Both of them had flatter, fertile agricultural land…

South Ayrshire
The number of hours of natural sunshine in South Ayrshire is controlled by the length of day and by cloudiness. In general, December is the dullest month and May or June the sunniest. Sunshine duration decreases with increasing altitude, increasing latitude and distance from the coast. Local topography also…

Aberdeen
United Kingdom > Scotland > Aberdeen
Two weather stations collect climate data for the area, Aberdeen/Dyce Airport, and Craibstone. Both are about 4 1⁄2 miles (7 km) to the north west of the city centre, and given that they are in close proximity to each other, exhibit very similar climatic regimes. Dyce tends to have marginally warmer daytime…

Lerwick
United Kingdom > Scotland > Shetland
Lerwick has transitioned from a subpolar oceanic climate (Cfc) to a maritime climate (Cfb) with cool to cold temperatures all year long. The lack of trees reflects the latter type. This is particularly pronounced by virtue of Lerwick being on the coast of an island, so even extreme temperature records are…

Cairngorm Mountains
United Kingdom > Scotland > Aberdeenshire
In terms of height, remoteness and the severe and changeable weather, the Cairngorms are the most arduous area in the United Kingdom. The plateau area has a Tundra climate (Köppen ET), and the shattered terrain is more like the high ground in high-arctic Canada or northern Norway than what is often observed…

On clearer days it is also possible to make out Malin Head in Inishowen in County Donegal in the west of Ulster, and the Ayrshire coast on the other side of Ailsa Craig. Other islands in the Firth of…

Culloden Battlefield
United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland > Newlands of Culloden > Leanach
Since 2001, the site of the battle has undergone topographic, geophysical and metal detector surveys in addition to archaeological excavations.
