Fingals Cave (Scotland)

Scotland, a region north of England, is considered part of the United Kingdom but its culture and inhabitants are very different from those of the British in England. At one time there was animosity between the Anglo-section tribes of England and the Celtic people of Scotland. But the Anglo-section people, later known as the British, were more powerful and gradually overthrew the Celts. In 2, the two regions were united and the United Kingdom of Britain was born. However, secessionist tones have begun to emerge in Scotland today.

Scotland is the rich and natural beauty of Europe. Scotland has one of the best places to visit, with high mountains and lush green plains. Fingles Cave is famous on the island of Staffa at the Inner Hebridge's Archipelago, west of Scotland. The island was given the name Staffa in ancient times by the Vikings, which means an island of columns. The soaring pillars of Basalt formed on the island of Staffa remind the Viking people of a house built on the trunks of their trees, which is why they called the island Pilar Island.

In the eighteenth century, a natural scientist named Sir Joseph Banks discovered the cave, built on the island by vertical pillars, and named it Fingles Cave. About a kilometer long, staff rush to see Fingles Cave on the island. According to geologists, volcanic activity is responsible for the construction of this unique cave. Several streams of lava flowing from the torn volcanoes, off the coast, reached the coast at a slower pace and became rocky after being exposed to water. These layers of basalt formed the columns and these columns became hexagonal in shape with each other.

Being a sea cave, Fingles Cave can only be accessed by boat. The 5-meter-long cave can be accessed by a large arched entrance measuring 5.5 meters high. As soon as you reach Fingals Cave on an unmanned island of staff, it is as if someone had reached a dreamland. The magnificent cave 2 meters above sea level is thought to be a museum of modern art due to its huge hexagonal pillars. All the walls of the cave are made of six pillars with huge columns.

At first glance, looking at the huge hexagonal pillars that can be said to be almost perfect outside and inside the cave, it seems that this cave looks like modern art.

The design may have been made by humans. But this unique creation is made by the invisible hands of nature. In addition to the amazing architecture created by nature, the wonderful juggling of sound can be heard in Fingals Cave. The interior of the cave creates unique echoes of sound. The sound of the cave mixing with the sound of the waves creates a unique rhythm. Frequent clashes with the pillars in the cave sound as if there was music playing in a cathedral. Because of this captivating aura, it is as if one has come to a large cathedral.

Just outside Northern Cave, there is another wonder at Northern Ireland called Giant's Causeway, made up of hexagonal rocks of the same basalt. Since the natural design of the two sites is almost identical, it is well known that a giant bridge called Finn Mac Cumhill was created to fight a fiery monster called Fingal which was gradually washed away by the waves of the ocean. Science-wise or a legend, but watching Fingles Cave need to be forgotten.
