EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time as we explore the picturesque West Esplanade in Rothesay, the largest town on the Isle of Bute located on the west coast of Scotland. This historic photograph, taken in 1906, showcases the elegant promenade lined with Victorian-era buildings and lush greenery. The Isle of Bute, with its rich history and natural beauty, has long been a popular destination for tourists seeking a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. Rothesay, the former capital of the island, was once a thriving resort town, famous for its grand Victorian hotels and elegant seaside promenades. The West Esplanade, with its stunning views of the Firth of Clyde and the Argyll Hills, was a favorite spot for leisurely strolls and picnics. The buildings along the esplanade, adorned with intricate detailing and colorful facades, reflect the grandeur of the Victorian era. The town's history can be traced back to the 13th century, with evidence of human occupation dating back to the Neolithic period. The island has been a popular destination for royalty and nobility, with Robert the Bruce and Mary, Queen of Scots, among its famous visitors. Today, the West Esplanade remains a popular attraction for visitors to the Isle of Bute. The historic buildings have been lovingly restored, and the promenade is once again a hub of activity, with cafes, shops, and galleries attracting visitors from far and wide. Whether you're exploring the island's rich history or simply enjoying the natural beauty of the coastline, the West Esplanade in Rothesay is a must-visit destination on the Isle of Bute.
