Inverness is a burgh of northern Scotland, thought to have been a Pict stronghold, it was chartered c. 1200. Inverness is the only city in the highlands of Scotland. Inverness lies at the mouth of the River Ness as it flows into the Moray Firth in the northwest of Scotland. It is from this that the city derives it's name; Inbhir Nis is Scots Gaelic for "mouth of the Nis". The river flows from nearby Loch Ness and the Caledonian Canal connects Loch Ness, Loch Oich and Loch Lochy. The buildings of Inverness include Inverness Castle and St Andrew's Cathedral. The castle was built on the site of a previous building from 1835. Inverness was granted city status by the Queen in December 2000, and celebrated its new status officially in March 2001. Inverness city's economy relies mainly on tourism.
