Stirling Old Town Walk | Scotland

Stirling is the youngest city in Scotland as it gained city rights in 2002 at the Golden Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd. Before that Stirling was declared Royal burgh, that was in the year 1130, and it remained so until 1975. However, in earlier times Stirling was the capital of Scotland and it was also important as the “Gateway to the Highlands”, with its position near the Highland Boundary Fault between the Scottish Lowlands and the Highlands.
Stirling, situated in Stirlingshire council, has a little over 45,000 inhabitants making it the smallest city in population.
The main feature of Stirling, and main tourist destination too, is Stirling Castle, clearly visible from miles around the city.
Other attractions include:
Stirling Old Town Jail
Old town Cemetery
Church of Holy Rude
etc
