The River Ness (Scottish Gaelic: "Abhainn Nis") is a river about 12 miles or 20 km long, which flows from the northern end of Loch Ness in Scotland, through Loch Dochfour, north-east to Inverness, with a total fall in height of about 16 metres before discharging into the Beauly Firth.
 The river is the origin of the name of Inverness which is from the Scottish Gaelic: "Inbhir Nis" , meaning "Mouth of the Ness".
The Siege of Inverness of 1650 was part of the Scottish Civil War that formed part of the Wars of the Three Kingdoms.

 At the northern end there is the Bona Narrows which opens out into Loch Dochfour, which feeds the River Ness and a further section of canal to Inverness.

Findlater Castle is the old seat of the Earls of Findlater and Seafield, sitting on a 50 ft -high cliff overlooking the Moray Firth on the coast of Banff and Buchan, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
 It lies about 15 km west of Banff, near the village of Sandend, between Cullen and Portsoy.
 The cliffs here contain quartz; the name "Findlater" is derived not from Norse as earlier stated here, but from the Scots Gaelic words "fionn" ("white") and "leitir" ("cliff or steep slope").
 The first historical reference to the castle is from 1246.
 King Alexander III of Scotland repaired this castle in the 1260s in preparation for an invasion by King Haakon IV of Norway.

Qal'at Ja'bar (Arabic: قلعة جعبر‎ ‎ , Turkish: "Caber Kalesi" ) is a castle on the left bank of Lake Assad in Raqqa Governorate, Syria.
 Its site, formerly a prominent hill-top overlooking the Euphrates Valley, is now an island in Lake Assad that can only be reached by an artificial causeway.
 Although the hilltop on which the castle sits was possibly already fortified in the 7th century, the current structures are primarily the work of Nur ad-Din Zangi, who rebuilt the castle from 1168 onwards.
 Since 1965, several excavations have been carried out in and around the castle, as well as restoration works of the walls and towers.
 The castle was a Turkish exclave between 1921 and 1973.
