Lerwick is known for its narrow streets, historic stone houses and scenic seaside views. The town combines a rich history with the peaceful atmosphere of an island setting.
Every winter, the town hosts a famous fire festival. People dress in historical costumes and take part in processions, followed by a ceremony in which a large wooden ship is set on fire.
