Three Scottish cities have been listed among the best places for tourists to visit in the UK next year.
The Condé Nast Traveler has put together the list which outlined the UK locations that offer the best hotels, food and events.
Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness were all considered to be locations that are worth visiting in 2023, according to the editors of the publication.

They said that the spring opening of the world’s first rewilding centre west of Loch Ness in nearby Glenmoriston is an event worth attending for nature lovers.
