Is Scotland in any top 10 lists?

Scotland

Just from a regular Glasgow resident, I hear the rail journey on the west coast up to Mallaig is in the worlds top ten. The country itself is in the top ten to visit for scenery. And Glasgow as a city has been voted one of the friendliest in the world. I can be impartial in this one as I am not Glasgow born but consider myself an adopted ‘weegie' i have lived in several other places in the U.K. and grew up in rural Perthshire but Glasgow is home, I love it. I would love the English and Welsh who haven't come for a visit to do so, when I lived there I met so many people who said they would love to come but hadn't managed yet, come on up! Ok, bring an umbrella too but come!

When I am tempted to have such a thought about the negative aspects of a place, it goes away when I shift attention to the positives. I was just in Shanghai recently, and on two days of my stay the air was intolerable without a mask. But the culture at street
