Iona Abbey Scotland Mavic 3

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Among the more recent additions to the landscape of Scotland are the Kelpies - a set of two giant horsehead statues in the Lowlands' Falkirk Council, which you'll see in this drone video by Jaybee3786. Completed in 2013, the statues are the symbolic heart of a land redevelopment project known as the Helix, which involves redeveloping the eastern end of the Forth and Clyde Canal where it joins the River Carron. "Kelpies" are mythological horses which can transform themselves into a human, said to exist in Scotland's Lochs.

Iona Abbey is an abbey located on the island of Iona, just off the Isle of Mull on the West Coast of Scotland. It is one of the oldest Christian religious centres in Western Europe. The abbey was a focal point for the spread of Christianity throughout Scotland and marks the foundation of a monastic community by St. Columba, when Iona was part of the Kingdom of Dál Riata. Saint Aidan served as a monk at Iona, before helping to reestablish Christianity in Northumberland, on the island of Lindisfarne. Iona Abbey is the spiritual home of the Iona Community, an ecumenical Christian religious order, whose headquarters are in Glasgow. The Abbey remains a popular site of Christian pilgrimage today.
