Royal Mile Review

The Royal Mile is the busiest tourist street in the Old Town as it runs between two significant locations in the royal history of Scotland: Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace. The name derives from it being the traditional processional route of monarchs,with a total length of approximately one Scots mile.The streets which make up the Royal Mile are: Castlehill, the Lawnmarket, the High Street, the Canongate and Abbey Strand.Today, the Royal Mile is an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, pubs and visitor attractions, where you’ll often find events, stands, entertainers and buskers, especially during the Edinburgh Fringe.Try walking all of it and explore the closes as well, as most have an interesting story and/or and amazing view.A part from the castle and the royal palace, the Royal Mile is full of buildings of historical importance. Just to list a few: The Castle Esplanade (a venue for Edinburgh Military Tattoo and other events); the former Tolbooth-Highland-St John's Church; the preserved 17th century merchant's townhouse Gladstone's Land; High Court of Justiciary (Scotland's supreme criminal court); the old Parliament House which now houses the Court of Session (Scotland's supreme civil court); St Giles' Cathedral, the Heart of Midlothian (a heart-shaped pattern built into the "setted" road, marking the site of the Old Tolbooth); Edinburgh City Chambers; Mercat Cross; Tron Kirk; John Knox's House; one of Edinburgh’s all around the year Christmas shop; Scottish Storytelling Centre; World's End Pub; Moray House; the Canongate Tolbooth (now a museum of social history called The People's Story); the Kirk of the Canongate and the new Scottish Parliament Building.

As the name implies, Royal Mile Avenue is about a mile long, the main road in Edinburgh’s Old Town, with many attractions, restaurants, bars, shops and hotels, and is the best starting point for exploring Edinburgh’s history. #10 We came out of the train station in Edinburgh and were shocked by the appearance of our eyes as soon as we walked to Royal Miles,. It happened that an artist was blowing bagpipes on the corner, and at that time, I felt like I was in the movie. # Royal Miles Both ends connect the witness of Scotland's historic drama, an Edinburgh castle and Holy Lutheran Palace, and are also must-visit attractions for tourists. The whole street does not need to be in any particular order, but it must set aside time to walk here aimlessly, stroll around the shops, see the performances of the buskers, find a favorite coffee shop to sit in for a while, and feel the charm of the medieval ancient city. Victoria Street adjacent to Royal Miles is also known for its exquisite, classical architectural style, and it is worth a walk.

Beautiful Edinburgh, I would really scream for him, the vehicle into the city to start, the whole city of the color, the architecture is enough to make people feel different, Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland, the show is really completely different from England style

一直听说苏格兰和英格兰很不一样但是时间太赶了就没参加那种几日团（一般要看那种好看的苏格兰自然风光，什么高地、天空岛等等，除了自驾就是跟团比较方便）所以选择了来爱丁堡待上两天.一定要感受的风情：【地标打卡】（图1~4）我选择的是 。 Carton Hills 卡尔顿山跟着Google 地图就可以顺利找到上山的路，上山不需要很久，可以俯瞰爱丁 堡城，也可以远眺亚瑟王座（爬亚瑟王座就比较吃力）。这里还是挺愜意的，我在山上坐了蛮久，有一个小小博物馆需要大约6磅

爱丁堡真的是个充满浪漫的城市！男朋友喜欢拍照背了相机我们就出发啦∞图一是在卡尔顿山上山右转的小台子可以拍到王子街全景在这里合照也超有氛围感（合照可看上一条小红书)剩下的所有照片都是路上随手拍没有固定地点啦
