upstream from this massive lock
in these mountains
between this tree covered peak
and this rocky one
sits a village
built out of gray rock with red post boxes
that residents are renowned
for wearing tartan clothing
and saying aye instead of yes, Rosa.
Is this true?
Well, that must mean
we are in the mountains of Scotland.
Huh
This is the story of the bazaar
mountain mystery
surrounding this little Scottish village
in the Italian
Alps.
To solve
this mystery,
we need a master detective, preferably
wearing a deerstalker hat
and smoking a pipe.
Or we need someone who was born here
and grew up hearing tales of Scottish
myths and legends
that have been reverberating
around these mountains for centuries.
That's why we are talking to Rosa here.
Rosa.
Take us back to the beginning of this tale
500 years later.
You would think that all traces of
Scottish mercenaries would have vanished.
But Scottish culture
can be found in most areas of Guuro life.
If you look hard enough.
Okay,
so we have fairy tales and tartan
like petticoats.
But perhaps the most deeply embedded
Scottishness
is in language.
And outside the Scottish named bar.
Listen closely enough.
And you can hear locals
singing of Gurro’s mysterious
beginnings.
Whatever the truth behind this mystery,
there is one more very important question.
Does anyone eat haggis here?
