The United Kingdom has a plethora of well preserved castles, some at beautiful locations and with lots of atmosphere. Many of these castles can be found in Scotland that has another special feature which is the bagpipe. The bagpipe is an airtight reservoir which can hold air and regulate its flow while the player breathes or pumps with a bellows, enabling the player to maintain continuous sound for some time. Materials used for bags vary widely, but the most common are the skins of local animals such as goats, sheep, cows, and pigs. One of the most famous sights in London is the clock tower Big Ben, which is by the way the name of the bell inside the clock, not the tower.
