Brigadoon
Brigadoon a fictional Highland village (in the 1947 musical of this title by Lerner and Loewe), which since the 18th century has been under an enchantment so that it comes to life for only one day every hundred years; the name is used allusively for a representation of an idealized Scotland, or for something characterized by its infrequent appearance or occurrence.
