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.
Starting at the top of Castlehill next to the Witches Well, you’ll hear about Edinburgh Castle’s early days, when a series of infamous witch burnings took place here.

About Édimbourg
Édimbourg, capitale écossaise sur des collines volcaniques : château sur son rocher, Vieille Ville médiévale et élégante Ville Nouvelle géorgienne.
Le château d'Édimbourg couronne Castle Rock et conserve les Honneurs d'Écosse, les joyaux de la couronne écossaise. De là, le Royal Mile descend à travers la Vieille Ville, devant la cathédrale Saint-Gilles et un dédale de closes étroits, jusqu'au palais de Holyroodhouse et au Parlement écossais. Arthur's Seat, ancien volcan, s'élève au-dessus du palais avec de vastes vues.
