Edinburgh Castle

Edinburgh Castle: The birthplace of James VI

Towering over the city wherever you go, Edinburgh Castle is one of the city's most famous landmarks, if not Scotland's. The stunning royal palace is perched at the top of a dormant volcano and you can get unrivalled views during your Edinburgh holiday when you visit the castle. A fortress has been on the site since the 9th century BC and a royal castle has stood here since the 12th century, some of which still stands today. Highlights of Edinburgh Castle include the 16th century Great Hall, Scotland's crown jewels, the palace rooms and the One o'clock Gun, which can be heard across Edinburgh. During August, visitors can also watch the Edinburgh Military Tattoo in the castle grounds.
