| A tough choice, indeed. These two countries are similar in many ways and I dont know what else, besides Celtic heritage, is your scope of interest, but Ill try to distinguish between these two and point out at their differences. Ireland has a milder climate and only its coastal part is rugged with mountains, while Scotland has a harsh climate and its terrain is mainly composed of mountains. As you probably know Ireland is known as the Green Island, mainly because its fertile vegetation and vast plains covered with rich grass. On the other hand, Scotland, despite its relatively hostile natural environment offers many beautiful lakes, the most famous of which is Loch Ness, together with its imaginary inhabitant Nessie. Ireland is also a country in which religion, namely Catholicism, is very important. Hope this helps a bit! |
