An underrated and “extraordinary” attraction, less than an hour away from Glasgow, has been named one of the best in the UK.<\/p>\n
The spot was named alongside other lesser destinations across the country, including\u00a0Woodchester Mansion in the Cotswolds and\u00a0Johnny Wood and Borrowdale Yews in Cumbria.<\/p>\n
Introducing its handpicked ranking, The Telegraph said that while the number of people coming to Britain’s visitor attractions has skyrocketed in recent years, there are still places where you “don’t need\u00a0to\u00a0shuffle shoulder-to-shoulder with the masses for a grand day out.”<\/p>\n
‘Extraordinary’ attraction 45 minutes from Glasgow named one of the best underrated places to visit<\/p>\n
Jupiter Artland, which is just 45 minutes away from Glasgow<\/a> by car, was named one of the best underrated attractions in the UK by The Telegraph<\/a>.<\/p>\n Discussing the outdoor art gallery and pool, the publication said: “You\u2019ll find an entirely new perspective on modern art in this extraordinary sculpture park set in a wooded estate on the outskirts of\u00a0Edinburgh.<\/p>\n “Moving around, on and through works of world-class artists like Anish Kapoor, Antony Gormley and Ian Hamilton Finlay is uniquely absorbing, with children (and adults) welcome to get up close, touch, even swim in a work of art in the Joana Vasconcelos Gateway Pool.”<\/p>\n This wasn’t the only Scottish place named with Kilmartin Glen in Argyll and Bute also being highlighted.<\/p>\n Recommended Reading:<\/p>\n The newspaper said: “It\u2019s hard to find ruins quite as evocative as those of\u00a0Kilmartin Glen\u00a0on the west coast of Argyll.<\/p>\n “Begin by overlooking successive burial cairns from the roadside, then pass through fields of black-face sheep to a prehistoric collection of stone circles, cist chambers and henge monuments that are older than Stonehenge, older even than the Great Pyramid of Giza.<\/p>\n “Perhaps, though, the wooded glen\u2019s most wonderful feature isn\u2019t its extra layer of Neolithic or Bronze Age remains, or the rock art sites that are denser than anywhere else in Britain (there are more than 800 at the last count).<\/p>\n “The most magnificent attraction is that its stories are still being unearthed from the soil by archaeologists \u2014 and so much of this history is still waiting to be discovered.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An underrated and “extraordinary” attraction, less than an hour away from Glasgow, has been named one of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":70881,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7826],"tags":[35485,35481,748,918,4884,35483,35484,35480,712,16,15,35482],"class_list":{"0":"post-70880","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-glasgow","8":"tag-attraction","9":"tag-borrowdale-yews","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-glasgow","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-ian-hamilton-finlay","14":"tag-joana-vasconcelos-gateway-pool","15":"tag-kilmartin-glen","16":"tag-scotland","17":"tag-uk","18":"tag-united-kingdom","19":"tag-visitor-attractions"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114443381960698067","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/70881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
