Rute

  1. The Royal Mile is one of Europe’s most ancient and famous streets. Along this 1 ¼ mile stretch – a Scot’s mile – crimes have been committed, royals have travelled, and famous folk like Rabbie Burns, Adam Smith and David Hume have met. On this walking tour, I’ll bring some of their stories to life.

About Edinburgh

Edinburgh, Skotlands hovedstad, rejser sig på vulkanske bakker, med et slot på en klippe, en middelalderlig gammel bydel og en elegant georgiansk New Town.

Edinburgh Castle kroner Castle Rock og opbevarer Honours of Scotland, de skotske kronjuveler. Derfra løber Royal Mile ned ad den gamle bydel, forbi St Giles' Cathedral og et virvar af smalle closes, til Holyroodhouse-paladset og det skotske parlament. Arthur's Seat, en oldgammel vulkan, rejser sig over paladset med vid udsigt.

Top-ranked sights in Edinburgh: Royal Mile, Edinburgh Old Town, Edinburgh Castle.
