Saint conan kirk was voted the top 10 buildings in Scotland of the last 100 years in 2016. The nearest train station is at Loch Awe from there which is 1 kilometers 15 minutes walk, you also can take bus 976 from Inveraray to here. St conan was built between 1881 and 1886 by Walter Campell. It is exceptional both in style and surroundings, with a strong sense of peace and inherent spirituality. The entrance is by donations, you can have the old feeling inside.

Kilchurn Castle is a ruined structure at the northeastern end of Loch Awe in Argyll and Bute Scotland. It was built in the mid 1400, but was badly damaged by my mother nature lightning in 1760.There no public transport over there, the nearest station is Loch Awe then walk around 3 kilometers 35 minutes. The castle currently is surrounded by metal gates, so the interior part cannot be viewed, but you still can walk around the exterior surrounding.

The Scottish Highlands have always been a tourist destination for tourists. In order to catch a sunrise, I will leave for Kilchurn Castle at 6 o'clock. Although it is about 10 minutes away from the hotel, since the castle is in the lake, it can only be seen from the other side of the lake. I didnt expect to have a sunrise at all, or say the day. Its in the opposite direction, and theres a lot of clouds over there, so its not too much to have a sunrise. To get to the river, you have to turn over the fence. There is a gap in the fence, there are steps, let the tourists cross over, then go to the left along the fence, and then pass through a fern to get to the river. Never cross the fence and go straight to the lake. If it rains, the road is muddy and can't get through. To the lake, there is a unique fern in Scotland that turns golden yellow in the fall, and this fern is spread throughout Scotland. This picture was taken from the castle back, because at that time the sun just rose and took photos.
