Stirling Castle
Stirlingshire
Stirling Castle looking north.
The Great Hall is rendered in Royal Gold harling as it would have been when built for James IV in 1503. (It's thankfully toned down a bit since its restoration a few years back.)
It's the largest medieval banqueting hall ever built in Scotland.

A panorama from the north from the esplanade on the left to the barracks on the right.
Looking north-east with the Wallace Monument over at Causewayhead framed by the Ochil Hills.
The imposing size of the rock the castle is built on, rising out of the flatlands of the River Forth, is very impressive.
