Itinerary

Edinburgh Castle is an ancient fortress built on a rock of volcanic origin located in the centre of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland. Although there are human remains from the Iron Age, the first castle was built during the reign of David I and continued as a royal residence until 1633.
1 h
Visitors head for the old town, a bustling area of centuries-old buildings and narrow alleyways. At its centre, perched on an extinct volcano, Edinburgh Castle houses the Scottish crown jewels. The Royal Mile, a steep street full of traditional pubs, informal restaurants, souvenir shops and small museums, stretches from the castle to the Scottish Parliament and Holyroodhouse Palace, the Queen's Scottish residence.
1 h
In the elegant New Town, Georgian houses line the wide avenues and open squares. Shoppers visit chain stores on Princes Street and luxury boutiques on and around George Street, while office workers and well-heeled residents enjoy drinks in elegant hotel bars and lively cocktail lounges. Old and new paintings of famous Scots are on display at the red sandstone, neo-Gothic Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
1 h

About Edinburgh

Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, rises on volcanic hills, with a castle on a crag, a medieval Old Town and an elegant Georgian New Town.

Edinburgh Castle crowns Castle Rock and keeps the Honours of Scotland, the Scottish crown jewels. From there, the Royal Mile runs downhill through the Old Town, past St Giles' Cathedral and a warren of narrow closes, to the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament. Arthur's Seat, an ancient volcano, rises above the palace with sweeping views.
