Flower Delivery to Stirling with Clare Florist

Stirling is an exciting city in central Scotland that holds a unique position between the Lowlands and the Highlands; also known as the “gateway to the Highlands” thanks to its key location in the lowest point of the River Forth, which made of Stirling a central point to travel towards the south or the north. It was once the capital of Scotland and in modern days it is a center for local government, higher education, industry and tourism.

To the history aficionado, Stirling might be an interesting place to visit. The city offers a travel back in time for everyone and they are proud to tell the story of their city and their Scottish nation with a unique array of diverse historic attractions. Perhaps one of the most notable historic experiences is lived by paying a visit to the Stirling Castle which can boast of being one of the largest and most important castles in Scotland. It was built on top of Castle Hill and it’s surrounded by steep cliffs, which gave it with a strong, strategic location that made it an invaluable fortification.  The castle visually dominates the city, and it’s a breathtaking sight.

The recently restored palace offers costumed interpreters who bring its story back to life for your knowledge and amusement. Along with access to the castle, you get access to Argyll’s Lodging which happens to be Scotland’s finest surviving 17th century townhouse and you also get to visit the Argyll Sutherland Highlanders Regimental Museum where you can trace over 200 years of one of Scotland’s elite military regiments.

If that’s not enough for you, you can also visit the National Wallace Monument; a national landmark made out of a national hero, Sir William Wallace. Inside the Monument you’ll find the Hall of Arms where you can learn the story of the Battle of Stirling Bridge and additionally you’ll find the Hall of Heroes where you can hear all about the story of Wallace’s life.

Maybe you’d like to participate in history too instead of just looking around. And no, unfortunately we don’t mean traveling back in time; we mean having the Battle of Bannockburn experience! Stand in the battlefield and appreciate the restored commemorative monuments. Making use of 3D technology, they offer you a peek of the medieval combat between two opposing kings, Robert the Bruce and Edward II.
