What people are saying:
Dunvegan Castle is a castle located in Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye on the west coast of Scotland. This is the seat of McLeod, the head of the McLeod family. Dunvegan Castle is the oldest inhabited castle in Scotland and has been the center of the MacLeod family for nearly 800 years. Before Scotland and England merged to form Great Britain, the many islands in northwest Scotland were mainly controlled by two powerful clans. MacLeod and MacDonald. The war between the two clans has been going on for almost a thousand years. The castle has many important family relics, the most important of which are the "Fairy Flag" and the "Dunvegan Cup". The Dunvegan Fairy Banner is the most precious and precious possession of the family. The fabric was once dyed yellow and was silk from the Middle East (Syria or Rhodes). Experts have confirmed that its date is between the 4th and 7th century AD. Mrs. Flora Louisa Cecilia McLeod, the twenty-eighth patriarch of the McLeod family, was born on February 3, 1878 and died on November 4, 1976. She opened the castle for public viewing. Now, the patriarch of this family has been passed down to the thirtieth generation. The family members are all over the world.

The first stop after arriving at Sky Island is Dunvegan Castle. The castle does not look very eye-catching. The fairy flag of the McLeod family inside can be called the treasure of the town house. There is a big garden outside the castle, which is worth a stroll.
Deng Weigen Castle is located on the west coast of Scotland. It is one of the most important cultural landscapes on Sky Island. It has a history of nearly a thousand years. There are many historical and exquisite exhibits in the castle.
Just take a look at this castle, there are so many English castles...
