Approaching the famous Falkirk Wheel yesterday as it completed a rotation. The Wheel links together the Forth & Clyde and Union Canals allowing quick transit for canal boat traffic. The world’s only rotating boat lift does the job in just 4 minutes that would take many hours via a traditional lock system to navigate the 35 meter elevation difference. #falkirk #visitfalkirk #scotland #visitscotland #canal | Scotdrone

The Falkirk Wheel is a rotating boat lift in Tamfourhill, Falkirk, in central Scotland, connecting the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. It reconnects the two canals for the first time since the 1930s. It opened in 2002 as part of the Millennium Link project. #FalkirkWheel #Falkirk #canalmagic #Scotland #visitScotland #scotlandiscalling VisitScotland Scottish Canals Visit Falkirk | The Kilted Photographer
