Loch Ness is a large lake in Scotland 37 km long. It is the second largest lake in Scotland after Loch Lomond. The deepest point in the lake is 230m deeper than the height of the Tower of London. There is the old castle Urquhart by Loch ness, built in the 13th century and demolished at the end of the 18th century. Now the lakeside area has been renovated into cafes and shops. Souvenir items are sold to serve tourists visiting.

There is also a gallery full of pictures and documents about the Loch Ness monster. With the majestic remnants of Urquhart Castle on its shoreline, Loch Ness is beautiful even without the intriguing tales of monsters.
