The aerial view of the Isles of Scilly is really awesome. You have to travel by air to see the isles’ breathtaking beauty from above.

According to Richard “the Isles if Scilly are an excellent place to walk along open cliff land and along nature trails. Scilly is also a unique place for the bird-watcher as the islands are ideally situated for migrant birds.”

Cromwell’s Castle is situated on the island of Tresco in the Isles of Scilly. It is actually a coastal Gun Tower built by Oliver Cromwell in 1651-1652. I found two reasons for this castle: it is a replacement for King Charles’s Castle and a structure built to guard the anchorage between Bryher and Tresco.
