Mousa Broch - World's Best Broch

The Broch of Mousa alone is worth the hassle to get to Shetland. A broch is a structure protecting its owner agains sporadic raiding but it was probably built for prestige as well. They were widely spread in Scotland around the year 0. A broch has double-skinned drystone walls with space for little rooms or stairs in-between. The one on the little island of Mousa is complete and stands to its original height of 13 m. You can climb the starts and get to the top. Even Earl Harold found it hard to capture in 1153.
But before we get to Mousa we start at Stanydale "Temple", a structure that probably wasn't a temple but its use is unknown. It was built around 3000 to 2000 BC.
Next is Loch of Strom with very scant ruin remains on a tiny island. 
Clickhimin is another broch with later additions. It rises to the more typical height in its ruined state of 2 to 3 meters. 
After Mousa which is reached once a day (weather permitting) with a boat seating 60 (and lots of American tourists!) you'll see Fort Charlotte in Lerwick. Best viewed from a drone of course.
