What travelers say:
Canongate Kirk is a solemn church ⛪️ I am not sure if I can take pictures in the church. I did not take pictures out of respect for local culture. The overall feeling is a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, very good building!

It is a beautiful church situated a mile from the Royal Palace, reflecting a strange Dutch architecture. The churchyards around the church are easier to visit as churches are not usually open to the public. The tombstones vividly show how Edinburgh people live and die. The most famous people buried here include Adam Smith (philosopher) and Robert Ferguson (poet).
Very majestic church, there are still many wedding dresses at the door. It is worth a visit for the Chinese because it is full of mystery.
It is worth a walk, it is very beautiful inside and outside, I like it very much.
