Usually considered to be the cultural capital of the Highlands, Inverness is a surprisingly cosmopolitan city that provides easy access to the natural beauty of the Highlands. The surrounding area boasts attractions such as the Culloden Battlefield and a Bronze Age burial site known as Clava Cairns, and the picturesque River Ness runs right through the heart of the city. Visitors flock here with the intention of trying to catch a glimpse of the famous monster at nearby Loch Ness, but it's also worth spending some time in the city itself to enjoy the many excellent restaurants, art galleries, and shops.
