Optical illusion car phenomenon in Scotland

Message from Kieran - Exploring Scotland

The Electric Brae in South Ayrshire, Scotland is a quirky spot where cars seem to roll uphill instead of down. It's all just an optical illusion though! Despite its name suggesting some electric or magnetic magic, it's really just a trick of the eyes caused by the surrounding landscape. Visitors, including General Dwight D Eisenhower during World War II, have been fascinated by this strange phenomenon. So next time you're in Scotland, make sure to check out the Electric Brae and see the magic for yourself!
