Lerwick, Shetland Islands
Sturdy little Lerwick is the friendly capital of the 100 islands and islets of the Shetland Islands.
The northernmost outpost of the British Isles (located almost midway between Scotland and Norway, to which they once belonged) - and setting of ancient archaeological sites, intriguing Viking echoes and, in more contemporary vein, the renowned Shetland knitwear!
