A VISIT TO ST ANDREWS

St Andrews is a beautiful town north of Edinburgh, as you can see in the map.
It's got the oldest golf course in Scotland, and one of the oldest in the world. There was a European Championship there when I visited it!

St Andrews is also very famous for its cathedral and its castle. Both are right by the sea, and both are ruins right now. They are really beautiful!

But the cathedral not always was in ruins as it is now, you can see what it was like in the year 1318 in this video:

And now I'll ask you A QUESTION: In St Andrews there is a very old university, the oldest in Scotland, founded in 1413. The two people in the picture met there when they were studying, and now are married.
Do you know who they are? Answer in the comments!
