Inveraray, a small town on the western shore of Loch Fyne in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, offers visitors a glimpse into 18th-century planning and Highland heritage. Built largely in the mid-1700s under the direction of the 3rd Duke of Argyll, the town features Georgian architecture, wide streets, and an unusual level of symmetry for a rural Scottish settlement. The main street, lined with whitewashed buildings, leads down to the loch’s edge, where fishing boats and leisure vessels come and go.
