Loch Ness
East Scotland and West Scotland are almost like two different countries with two different capitals—Edinburgh on the east coast, and Glasgow, 70 km to the west. Edinburgh is the official capital of Scotland, and many visitors to the east coast go there to see the beautiful buildings. Other visitors go to play golf at St. Andrews, 20 km to the north.
Visitors usually go to the west for the beautiful countryside. There are mountains (Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Britain) , hills, forests and rivers. And, of course, the lochs (the Scottish word for lakes). The lochs begin about 30km north of Glasgow with Loch Lomond. This loch is bigger than any other in Scotland, but it is not as famous as Loch Ness, which is near the port of Inverness.
Loch Ness is huge; 36 km long and 230 m deep. It is famous because many people believe that a monster lives in it. People first wrote about the monster in AD 565, but modern reports began in 1933, when workers were building a big road next to the loch, and used dynamite. A lot of people saw the monster that year. Perhaps it swam to the surface to see why there was so much noise! In 1957, someone began "The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau" , and many people from all over the world have taken photographs of things in the water which they say are the monster.
When you see Loch Ness, it is easy to believe in the monster—the water is dark and silent, and there aren’t any flowers or plants on the banks. People say that the monster is ten metres long —or bigger—and has a long neck. Many people believe that the monster is a swimming dinosaur (恐龙) which came into the loch millions of years ago and lives on the bottom of the loch eating the fish which live there. Others believe that the story is only a myth to bring tourists to this beautiful part of the world.
Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland.
