Glencoe Scotland
This deep, verdant valley is as notable for its dramatic scenery as it is for its history. The Massacre of Glencoe took place in 1692, when 38 members of the MacDonald clan were killed by their guests in their own home, which was not only a horrific act but it breached medieval hospitality laws, which explicitly states that one does not kill their guest or host). This event was the inspiration behind Game of Thrones’ “Red Wedding” and the landscape was featured in the James Bond film Skyfall.
