Isle Of Iona
Iona is a tiny island in the Inner Hebrides off the Ross of Mull on the western coast of Scotland. It is primarily known for Iona Abbey, though there are other structures on the island. Iona Abbey was a centre of Gaelic monasticism for 3 centuries as well as is today known for its family member peace as well as natural surroundings. It is a visitor destination as well as a place for spiritual retreats. Its contemporary Scottish Gaelic name means "Iona of (Saint) Columba" (formerly anglicised "Icolmkill"). The island, aside from the land possessed by the Iona Cathedral Trust, was bought from the Duke of Argyll by Hugh Fraser in 1979 and also contributed to the National Trust for Scotland. In 2001 Iona's population was 125 and also by the time of the 2011 census this had expanded to 177 normal citizens.
