Macbeth does not take place in a city exactly. The first scenes are thought to be near the town of Forres. Macbeth's castle, at which Duncan is killed, is at Inverness, which is a city, although the castle is not exactly in the city. (Duncan says "the air nimbly and sweetly recommends itself" which would not be true in a city). The later scenes are at the castle at Dunsinane, which is also in the country.

Which of Shakespeare's plays was set in Scotland?

Much Ado About Nothing is set on the island of Sicily. All of the history plays, plus Cymbeline, King Lear, and The Merry Wives of Windsor take place in England, and Macbeth takes place in Scotland, all of which are in the British Isles. Elsinore Castle where Hamlet is set is also on an island. Part of Pericles is set in Mytilene which is on the island of Lesbos. The Tempest is also set on an unnamed island. That makes eighteen plays, almost half of all the plays Shakespeare wrote.
