The Maiden Paps are twin hills near Hawick, in the Scottish Borders of the south east of Scotland, that have the shape of human breasts. They are located 12 km south of Hawick; the higher pap is 510 m and the lower 500 m high.〔(The Maiden Paps )〕 Although there are some well defined hills like the Maiden Paps, the Roxburgh Hills are gently rolling for the most part, like much of the Southern Uplands. Due to the surrounding landscape, hills such as the Maiden Paps tend to look more prominent than they actually are. The Maiden Paps are relatively close to Shankend (3.5 km to the NE) and to the Hermitage Castle (6 km to the south); these are two places with a sinister reputation. ==See also== * Paps of Anu * Pap of Glencoe * Paps of Jura * Breast-shaped hill 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maiden Paps (Hawick)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
