Описание:
The traditional architecture and stunning natural settings of the Highland villages have long proved an attraction to visitors. Some of the most picturesque are former fishing villages, like Auchmithie, from which the herring fleet has long since departed, leaving the splendid harbor to the contemplation of visitors and a couple of lobster boats. Lowland villages often have an air of quiet, well-ordered prosperity. Rows of stone cottages and a fantastic profusion of hanging baskets make places like Luss on Loch Lomond a charming stop on the road north. Here, too, is the extraordinary Dean Village--a complete, self-contained community surrounded by the city of Edinburgh. And among the many ravishing port-villages on the Islands is the little gem of Tobermory on Mull, where the reflection of a main street of brightly painted houses shimmers in the waters of the harbor.

Altogether, thirty-five villages are included. Special sections on the Scottish castle and the monuments of the country's Celtic past round out the account, making this beautiful book one of the most complete pictures of rural Scotland in recent years. A Travelers' Guide listing places to visit, to stay, and to eat helps the reader to enjoy even more a visit to the Scottish Highlands, Lowlands, and Islands.

Описание: This book presents a selection of magical places, genuine architectural, artistic and cultural gems set in peaceful, serene, suggestive atmospheres. The 80 villages selected were chosen due to the presence of buildings and urban structures of historical and architectural interest. These are eloquent testimonies to the specific historical identity of a country or a region, as well as the architectural, cultural and aesthetic tradition that characterizes it. All of the featured locations have a strong “genius loci” (spirit of the place) that is still perceptible today. Some of the villages are better known than others, and they are typically small, both in size and population. The book’s authors are art historians who are involved in projects to valorize local heritage. The book is written in a brisk, pleasant style and is illustrated with a collection of spectacular photographs, with extensive aerial views and suggestive panoramas, all of which bring to light the charm and cultural wealth of these historic treasures.
