Edinburgh Castle is a number one paid-for tourist attraction to go if you ever come Edinburgh. This castle is a world-famous icon of Scotland.
Once you are in, first thing to do is to buy ticket.
Apart from the ticket information, there are guided tours provided by the castle stewards and also an audio guide tour available in eight languages such as English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Mandarin. The audio tour will take you around the castle to explain its architecture and its dramatic history. It’s interesting. And of course, if you do not want any, you can be like us. Walk around and read yourself. There are many information written on every part of the castle including the history, how this was built, why did this castle build, what kind of people had been staying there in centuries, what kind of situation had the people there been through, etc.
This is where you have to pass your ticket.
Let’s begin to explore the famous historic castle.
It is surrounded by Old and New Towns of Edinburgh and part of main attraction in the city. You won’t miss it.
Nice scenery that I can’t stop myself of taking photos here.
Even though the castle is huge, you won’t lost inside.
What about inside the castle?
This is just part of it. There are many more that I didn’t take the photos.
This was the oldest part of the castle, St Margaret’s Chapel, that dated fom the 12th century. We had walked the whole castle and took us 4 hours to finish it. It’s worthwhile.
Let’s have a break. We went to the cafe to have our hi-tea in the castle. That’s awesome. Isn’t it?
Love Edinburgh, this is great!
