Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people have seen it. At least, they say they have seen it．

The Loch Ness Monster is a famous legend. The first story about a monster in Loch Ness was told over 500 years ago, but the legend of the monster spread widely only in the twentieth century. In 1933, a husband and wife reported that they saw a big monster in the middle of the lake. Since then, a number of people have said that they have seen a monster in Loch Ness. Several people have taken photos, but at least one of them was a hoax. During the 1960s, a team was formed to look for the monster. They took many photos and made movies, but they were never able to find a monster.
