Discover the Malaysia-hunted Scottish Kellie’s Castle This unique and fascinating attraction located in Malaysia has some weird and mysterious stories to tell you. Built by a Scottish planter, William Kellie Smith, in the 20th century, he lost his fortune and left this unfinished Scottish mansion made for his wife. The castle is a blend of architectural styles, including Moorish, Roman, and Gothic, making it a cutting-edge, timeless piece.
