Nearby Facilities
 
Edinburgh castle:
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 - the 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 six 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, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Japanese and German. 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; and ramps provide access to the war memorial. For those with impaired vision, there is a free braille guide and hands-on models of the Crown Jewels with braille texts.

Edinburgh military tattoo:

The Hub:
Edinburgh's festival centre. Home of the Edinburgh international festival and a visitor centre for the city's festivals. Fantastic art and craft in magnificent building.

The palace of Holyrood house:
The official residence in Scotland of Her Majesty The Queen, stands at the end of Edinburgh's Royal Mile, against the spectacular backdrop of Arthur's Seat.

Royal botanic gardens:
Known locally as the 'Botanics' and established way back in 1670, Scotland's premier garden is one of the UK's favourite attractions welcoming over 660,000 visitors each year. A popular area since its opening in 1997 is the Chinese hillside providing a showcase to RBGE's historic and contemporary Chinese plant collections. With the largest collection of Chinese-origin plants in cultivation, familiar garden plants alongside more unusual specimens can be seen, many of which were collected in China during the early 20th Century by the intrepid plant-hunters. With a beautiful setting and a tranquil pool of water, it is a favourite with those who want to escape the stresses of life for a while. There are events, exhibitions and activities all year round. Entry is free and it is open from dawn to dusk

The Royal museum:
Welcome to a magnificent Victorian building, distinguished by its soaring, glass-topped roof which floods the main hall with natural light. The Royal museum houses outstanding international collections of decorative arts, science, industry, archaeology and the natural world. Some exhibits are millions of years old, others less than a decade. Together they reflect the diversity of life on earth and the ingenuity of human kind. Adjacent to the museum of Scotland. Entrance is free.

Saint Giles' cathedral:
The oldest parts of the present building are the four massive central pillars, thought to date from about 1120. The church was burnt down in 1385, but quickly rebuilt. Over the next 150 years, many chapels were added. These included chapels set up by the craftsmen's guilds of Edinburgh; chapels endowed by prominent merchants and nobles, and even a chapel for the relic of Saint Giles.
