Answer 2

If you are talking about Scotland, the country, the it is on the opposite side of the globe from Australia. Scotland is part of the United Kingdom and shares a border with England. Australia is in the Southern hemisphere and is a continent/island.

If you are talking about the Scotland Australia Cairn, well, it is located at Rawson Park, Mosman, New South Wales, Australia and it is Scotland's gift to the people of Australia on the occasion of the 1988 Bicentenary Celebrations

"Here Frai A'The Airts, Stane Upon Stane Haud The Gither Thru Wind And Rain Minders O'Scotland That Aince Was Hame" - are the words engraved on the plaque at the Cairn.

The Scotland Australia Cairn was built in 1988 to celebrate the landing of Captain Arthur Phillip in Australia in 1788. The Scottish Australian Bicentennial Committee conceived the idea of a memorial cairn with a stone from every Parish in Scotland. The Cairn stands majestically atop the highest point at Rawson Park, overlooking a vista of Sydney's unique harbor.

The Scotland Australia Cairn was built in 1988 to celebrate the landing of Captain Arthur Phillip in Australia in 1788. The Scottish Australian Bicentennial Committee conceived the idea of a memorial cairn with a stone from every Parish in Scotland. The Cairn stands majestically atop the highest point at Rawson Park, overlooking a vista of Sydney's unique harbour.


In the Highlands of Scotland, cairns have always been built to commemorate great events or tragedies which happened there, or as a memorial to someone connected with the area. The cairn in Mosman is a fine example built by Duncan Mathieson from Wester Ross, a distinguished craftsman and Gaelic tradition bearer.


There are 1,750 stones in all, collected by Sunday school children, and Ministers, one of whom climbed to the top of the Cairngorms. Some stones are engraved with their origins. Most are richly coloured, reflecting the geological tapestry of Scotland.


Embedded in the top of the Cairn lies a stone originating from the hillside of Ulva, birthplace of Lachlan Macquarie, fifth governor of Australia. The stone is engraved with a Celtic cross and Macquarie's personal motto:


AN T-ARM BREAC DEARG - The Red Tartan Army.

Just north of Sydney is correct I would say.

Ye daft auld bugger. Scotland has NOTHING to do with Australia, other than some people from Scotland have emigrated there over the years.
