Pop Web site in new window   Visit Scotland: Uniquely Scottish
Scotland is more than the sum of its stereotypical bagpipe, cashmere, and Bay City Roller parts. Find out what the country has to offer from the official tourism guide, with information on the kilt, the thislte, the saltire... and the whisky. Plus, lots more.
 
Pop Web site in new window   18th Century and the Kilt
Proven once and for all by Braveheart Mel Gibson, men in kilts are a fashion DO! Get the history of this ancient garment, with images, a section on patterns, and more.
 
Pop Web site in new window   Gaelic Net
Failte (welcome) to the source for the modern incarnation of Gaelic culture and language. Brush up on customs, vocabulary, and history at “the definitive Gaelic resource on the Net.”
 
Pop Web site in new window   Haggis Dinners Around the World
Scottish “cuisine” is often questioned, but distinctive dishes such as Haggis deserve awe and respect--or at least a Web site. After all, an animal’s innards stuffed into its stomach bag cannot be ignored. No wonder the cows are mad.
 
Pop Web site in new window   Scone’s Scottish Internet Book Menu
Don’t break out the jam yet, this menu actually bypasses scones for the more hearty courses of Celtic mythology, Scottish folklore, and tartan history—with a sweet note about bagpipes.
 
Pop Web site in new window   Clans and Tartans
Whether you’re in search of your own Scottish family tree or just into plaid, this extensive directory of clan societies, genealogy and ancestry links, and kiltmakers is a must-see.
