This pleasant little town is
rightly famous for its two malt whisky distilleries, festival theatre and wide
choice of shopping.
Noted for its scenery and
hydro-electric dam with salmon ladder. Here the salmon don''t actually jump up
the ladder but swim through interconnecting pipes. An observation chamber
allows visitors to watch the salmon underwater through a large plate glass
window.
The present town is relatively new by Perthshire
standards dating mainly from the mid 19thC. Queen Victoria visited in 1844 and it quickly grew
into the tourist town of today.
