A visit to the Dunvegan Castle and Grounds, Scotland

Dunvegan Castle is the situated at a distance of about a mile and a half to the North of Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye and it is the seat of MacLeod of MacLeod, the Chief of MacLeod clan. I got a chance to visit it during my visit to the Isle of Skye in 2011.  
A visit to the Dunvegan Castle and Grounds, Scotland. A bonus view from the castle's grounds...to keep you motivated to visit Scotland. :). Dunvegan Castle is the situated at a distance of about a mile and a half to the North of Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye and it is the seat of MacLeod of MacLeod, the Chief of MacLeod clan. I got a chance to visit it during my visit to the Isle of Skye in 2011. The castle is the oldest continuously inhabited castle in Scotland. In this picture, the people who are visible were a part of our group. It was raining consistently, but that anyways is a constant feature of Scotland's weather. I took a peek into the castle grounds. But I was glad to be able to spend much more time here, as the pictures later will reveal. Stone walls of the castle were good enough ground for a flowering bush to grow. These insurgences of nature are always a welcome sight for a nature-worshipper like me. The sight from one of the windows of the castle. These castles were built to keep people out. I guess with such views, the people inside would also perhaps prefer to be outside. :) This is Loch Dunvegan, which is famous for its seal tours. Coming back to the castle, here are some pathways through the walls - mystifying and awe-inspiring. And finally the gardens! Numerous little streams were flowing through the dense foliage. Stream flowing parallel to the path - Mesmerising! Some of these waterfalls were artificial while some looked natural. Or perhaps they have been made so long ago that they have started looking like an integral part of the landscape. A little stream flowing out into the Loch Dunvegan. The building on the right is the Castle. A bonus view from the castle's grounds...to keep you motivated to visit Scotland. :)

Main places to see & Top things to do around Dalhousie : Stunning Hill Station in Himalayan State of India

  Dalhousie is one of the most popular Hill Stations in Himachal  and there is lot to explore around Dalhousie. This is small and very well maintained town in Chamba region of Himachal Pradesh . This Photo Journey shares some of the exciting places around Chamba and how to plan a good one day tour through Khajjiar, Chamba & Chamera etc. CHAMERA HYDROLIC PROJECT Chamera Hydroelectric Project is located in Banikhet, 7 kms from Dalhousie. The water body near the lake is very scenic and is a popular boating spot. Chamera Dam is around 40 kilometers from Chamba Town. It takes approximately 1.5 hrs to reach the place is road condition is good. Overall it’s a little dry terrain as compared to Dalhousie and Khajjiar. And temperature also goes up as we go towards Chamera Dam.  As you move out from Chamba town, you follow Ravi river for some time and then take right. After 45 minutes of drive, you get a glimpse of Chemera Dam.
