Edinburgh, Scotland: Iconic Castle
Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle is a world famous icon of Scotland and part of the Old and New Towns of Edinburgh’s World Heritage Site.
It was recently voted top UK Heritage Attraction in the British Travel Awards and is Scotland’s number one paid-for tourist attraction.
This most famous of Scottish castles has a complex building history. The oldest part, St Margaret's Chapel, dates from the 12th century; the Great Hall was erected by James IV around 1510; the Half Moon Battery by the Regent Morton in the late 16th century; and the Scottish National War Memorial after the First World War.
The castle houses the Honours (Crown Jewels) of Scotland, the Stone of Destiny, the famous 15th century gun Mons Meg, the One O' Clock Gun and the National War Museum of Scotland.
In addition to guided tours provided by the castle stewards, there is an audio guide tour available in eight languages. The audio tour takes the visitor on a tour around the castle, explains its architecture, and tells its dramatic history. This guide is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Mandarin.
The Crown Jewel shop in the Royal Apartments offers exclusive lines of specially designed jewellery.
A courtesy vehicle (provided by the Bank of Scotland) can take visitors with a disability to the top of the castle. Ramps and a lift give access to the Crown Jewels, Stone of Destiny and associated exhibition. For those with impaired vision, there is a free Braille guide and hands-on models of the Crown Jewels with Braille texts.
The Amazing England and Scotland Tours 2016.
Great Britain is a tale of three countries – England, Scotland and Wales. Any traveler looking for castles and cathedrals, 'olde' pubs, rolling hills and a sense of history permeating the country won't be disappointed. For a cosmopolian touch visit London and rock and roll fans don’t miss a trip to Liverpool – the home of the Beatles. In Ireland enjoy amazing natural landscapes to explore, with ancient myths and legends waiting for you to uncover. Journey from England’s cosmopolitan capital to Edinburgh, where the city streets have been declared masterpieces of urban planning. Then, pass through the Lake District and Wales en route to the Emerald Isle, where you’ll grab a pint (or a few) with Dubliners before making your way through the beyond-scenic Ring of Kerry and Cliffs of Moher. The United Kingdom (UK) comprises four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Within the United Kingdom, a unitary sovereign state, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales have gained a degree of autonomy through the process of devolution. The UK Parliament and British Government deal with all reserved matters for Northern Ireland and Scotland and all non-transferred matters for Wales, but not in general matters that have been devolved to the Northern Ireland Assembly, Scottish Parliament and National Assembly for Wales. Additionally, devolution in Northern Ireland is conditional on co-operation between the Northern Ireland Executive and the Government of Ireland (see North/South Ministerial Council) and the British Government consults with the Government of Ireland to reach agreement on some non-devolved matters for Northern Ireland (see British–Irish Intergovernmental Conference). England, comprising the majority of the population and area of the United Kingdom, remains fully the responsibility of the UK Parliament centralised in London. England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are not themselves listed in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) list of countries. However the ISO list of the subdivisions of the UK, compiled by British Standards and the UK's Office for National Statistics, uses country to describe England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland, in contrast, is described as a province in the same lists.[5] Each have separate national governing bodies for sports and compete separately in many international sporting competitions, including the Commonwealth Games. Northern Ireland also forms joint All-Island sporting bodies with the Republic of Ireland for most sports, including rugby union. The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are dependencies of the Crown and are not part of the UK. Similarly, the British overseas territories, remnants of the British Empire, are not part of the UK. Historically, from 1801, following the Acts of Union, until 1921 the whole island of Ireland was a country within the UK. Ireland was split into two separate jurisdictions in 1921: Southern Ireland and Northern Ireland. Southern Ireland left the United Kingdom under the Irish Free State Constitution Act 1922.

4K City Walks: National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh - Virtual Walk Walking Treadmill Video is a bit different than my usual fair. I'm trying something new with this walking tour of the National Museum of Scotland. It's truly one of the most amazing museums I've been to. It's very well done and laid out and the building itself is worth the FREE ENTRY! It has exhibits in science, technology, art, history, culture, and more. My kids love it and we've been at least four times in two trips to Edinburgh. Personally, my favorite part is the atrium. It's so bright and beautiful and airy.
