Inverness, Administrative center in Highland, Scotland.
Inverness stretches along both sides of the River Ness, connecting the northern end of the Caledonian Canal to the Moray Firth in northern Scotland.
The strategic location of Inverness made it a target during the Jacobite rising of 1745, leading to the decisive Battle of Culloden in 1746.
The Northern Meeting Piping Competition in Inverness brings together bagpipe players from across Scotland to perform traditional Highland music each September.
Inverness Airport, located 9 miles east of the city center, operates daily flights to London, Amsterdam, Belfast, Manchester, and other European destinations.
The Old High Church, dating from the 1770s, stands on St Michael's Mount by the river, at the oldest Christian site in Inverness from the 6th century.
