There are quite a lot of people who have to queue up at the castle ticket gate. Buy the ticket for 5 minutes directly at Trip.com and go in directly. It is too convenient. The castle scenery is very good, you can go shopping slowly, and you can rent a translation headset after you go in. If you need it, the text introduction is actually written in detail.

Palace of Holyroodhouse

Holly Luther Palace is worth a visit. When time permits, you must see Queen Mary&#39;s Palace in Scotland. It is still the place where the royal family holds a garden party in the summer. It overlooks the throne of Arthur. The order of visits inside the palace is very reasonable. With the introduction in the headset, immersive feeling the heavy atmosphere of history! !

It is the most romantic sunset place. I have been here, it was cold but beautiful! I will not go into details about the many celebrity check-in places.
But my only deepest experience was the lyrics,
&quot;The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you&quot;
I didn&#39;t think this song was romantic before, until I climbed to the top of Carlton Mountain⛰️It was really speechless and beautiful!!
I really like this light blue gentle dusk~~Thanks to the little afterglow near sunset that day, I saw the light blue and light orange sky line in the distance, which was really extremely romantic~~Continuously touched me✨💕🌹Recommend this extremely romantic place, must go?

Medieval dusk🌆, the only one in the world❤️
