2 . Scotland is packed with beautiful places to visit and you could honestly spend months and months exploring everything this wonderful country has to offer! Next I’m going to take you through some of the best place to visit in Scotland, based on where we have personally visited so far!

Glen Coe

If you asked me where my favourite place to visit in all of Scotland is... I would say, Glen Coe. The whole area of Glen Coe constantly had my face in shock due to the beauty that I was witnessing1 was witnessing (亲眼看见). It’s just a stream of dramatic mountains, lakes, rugged (崎岖的) beauty and more.

Fort William

Fort William is probably one of the most well-known places to visit in Scotland. It’s a popular tourist destination thanks to being home to the UK’s tallest mountain: Ben Nevis. Fort William is also the starting point for one of the world’s most famous train rides: The Jacobite. Harry Potter fans will recognize it as the Hogwarts Express, and this train ride will take you through the beautiful countryside, crossing some iconic Harry Potter filming locations such as the Dumbledore’s Grave and the Glenfinnan Viaduct!

Isle Of Skye

This island feels totally different from other parts of Scotland and is truly rugged and ready! There are many hot spots to explore including the Old Man of Storr, the Fairy Glen. I even stayed on a private island with its very own lighthouse, which was one of the coolest places I’ve ever visited and one of the most romantic places stay in Scotland.

Cairngorms National Park

This is the largest national park in the UK so it’s another popular place to visit in Scotland and it’s no surprise why.

5 . Going on holiday doesn’t have to be bad for the environment, and there are still plenty of ways in which you can have a much-deserved break without harming the environment.

Forget planes.

While most forms of transport produce carbon dioxide, one of the gases responsible for global warming, planes have a massive carbon footprint because of the huge number of miles they travel.     1     There’s so much to see and do in the U.K., yet most of us overlook the endless possibilities. There’s the unparalleled beauty of the Cornish coast and the Peak and Lake District. Enjoy the history of a stunning Welsh castle, try boating on the Norfolk Broads or riding the “Hogwarts Express” across Scotland. Or try taking the train over to Europe — within six hours of London are Amsterdam’s famous art galleries. Alternatively, take the car to Cannes in just over half a day or the ferry to Scandinavia for holidays you’d normally only dream of.

    2    

Hotels can be huge producers of greenhouse gases — think about the water that’s wasted, all the bathroom products thrown out half used and all the buffet food that goes uneaten. So choose an eco-friendly option instead. Camping and a home stay — where you live with a family in their own home — are two of the best options. But if you insist on staying in the hotel, some of the things to look out for are hotels made from ustainable materials, which are energy efficient or use their own solar energy and that recycle.     3    

Pack with care.

The less you take, the lighter your carbon footprint, because the heavier your luggage is, the more fuel it takes to carry. So pack light and responsibly.     4     All of their bottles, from shampoo and conditioner to body wash and moisturizer, are now made from recycled plastic that can be repurposed again and again so no new plastic is produced. And their iconic soap bars now also come in plastic-free packaging.

Buy gifts responsibly.

Bringing back gifts for friends and loved ones is part of the fun of a holiday.     5     Avoid anything plastic, or if it is plastic, make sure it is 100% recyclable, and make sure your friends will love whatever you give them so it isn’t just thrown in the bin headed for landfill. Try to buy presents made by local craftsmen, which will benefit the community and help their economy. And don’t bring back anything made from shells, corals or animal products, because you don’t know if they’re from sustainable sources.

A．Consider living in an eco-friendly hotel.

B．Think about eco-friendly accommodation.

C．But make sure you choose items carefully.

D．Some also have planting programs to attract wildlife.

E．Why not skip flying in favor of a holiday closer to home?

F．Rather than lie on a beach, why not help our precious planet when you’re away?

G．Take environmentally-friendly products with you, such as products from a household company.
