Edinburgh Castle is famous all over the world. There are too many introductions about her. If you want to know about her past and present life, remember to rent an interpreter after entering the castle. The Chinese explanations here are very detailed. It can be said that they are among the leading explanations of major attractions in Britain. For me, what impressed me most was the day and night of the castle - the most popular one in the castle was the treasure house. In order to see the King of Scotland's treasure and the stone of destiny, the Dragon lined up for hundreds of meters. Queuing seems to be the most common thing in Britain. Everyone is in a conscious line. There are no staff members to maintain order, no direction to which line, but everything seems to be in good order. There is a famous "one minute gun" (One O&39; clock Gun) on the Mofangshan fort. Every day (except Sunday, Christmas and Good Friday) when the artillery was fired on time at 1 p.m., the castle was deafening. The little native boy came in admiration and arrived before 1 o'clock to see the scene of the firing. Unfortunately, there was no artillery fire on this day. It was disappointing for him. The best way to enjoy the castle under the night is to watch a Tattoo show. It's hard to describe the scene in words, but it can only be summed up in "amazing". If you say you have to see a punch point in the UK, I will first push Tattoo. Tattoo stands are divided into different zones and fares are different. The best, of course, is District 8,9. The performance lasted for two hours. It was amazing. Finally, it ended with a famous Scottish song "Auld Lang Syne" (translated into Chinese as "Forever Friendship"), and the audience stood up and praised the performer.

    Tons to do, after you pay to get in. There are multiple buildings with a variety of informative history within.The Scottish Crown Jewels are inside as well as other valuable Scottish history.Plan for at least 3-4 hours if you really want to appreciate the castle and museums inside. The museums inside are free, included with the cost of the ticket to get inside the castle

    Edinburgh Castle stands proudly atop Castle Rock, dominating the skyline of Scotland's capital city and serving as a symbol of its rich history and heritage. My recent visit to this iconic landmark left me in awe of its grandeur and significance.Stepping through the gates of Edinburgh Castle is like stepping back in time, as centuries of history unfold before your eyes.

    Edinburgh Castle isn't just a castle, it's a crown jewel of Scotland perched proudly on Castle Rock. The panoramic views from its battlements are unbeatable, stretching across the city and beyond. Be prepared to be awestruck by its history, architecture, and iconic presence.A Walk Through Time ️The castle boasts a rich tapestry of history, with sections dating back as far as the 12th century. Explore St Margaret's Chapel, one of the oldest surviving religious buildings in Edinburgh. Marvel at the grandeur of the Great Hall, where lavish feasts were once held. Don't miss Mons Meg, a colossal 15th-century cannon, and the One o' Clock Gun, a daily tradition that still booms across the city.**Treasures and Tales **History buffs will love the crown jewels, known as the Honours of Scotland. Immerse yourself in the fascinating stories of sieges and battles that shaped Scotland's past at the National War Museum. Take a guided tour led by a kilted steward, or explore at your own pace with the informative audio guide.**Tips for Your Visit **Tickets are essential, and booking online in advance is highly recommended, especially during peak season. Wear comfortable shoes, as there's a good bit of walking uphill to reach the castle. The climb is worth it for the breathtaking views, but if you have mobility concerns, a courtesy vehicle can take you to the top.**Make it a Full Day! **After exploring the castle, delve deeper into Edinburgh's Old Town. The charming cobbled streets and historic buildings are a delight to wander through. Grab a bite to eat at a cosy pub and enjoy some traditional Scottish fare.#EdinburghCastle #Scotland #HistoryBuff #TravelGram #EpicViews #MustSee
