The National Wallace Monument

After spending almost the entire day at the Stirling Castle, I took a super duper long walk to The National Wallace Monument which was build to commemorate Sir William Wallace who help led Scotland to a victory against England in the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297. He's a National hero for his patriotism and desire to have help led Scotland to peace and freedom from the English rules during the reign of King Edward I who apparently was super cruel to the Scottish people.
