Ash_bd2uk:“I recently visited Edinburgh Castle with my family, and it was an amazing experience. Set high on Castle Rock, the panoramic views over the city are breathtaking. The castle is packed with history – from the Crown Jewels and Stone of Destiny to the magnificent Great Hall. The exhibits are well-presented, and the audio guide brings the stories to life. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable, making the visit even more enjoyable. While it was busy, there’s plenty of space to explore and capture great photos. Walking through the castle grounds felt like stepping back in time, and the mix of history, architecture, and scenery is truly impressive. A must-see in Edinburgh – perfect for families, history lovers, and anyone who wants to experience Scotland’s heritage up close. We left with wonderful memories and a deeper appreciation for this iconic landmark.”

Walking on the street, you can see entertainers' happy performances everywhere. This is the origin of traditional Scottish dress skirts, the blend of art and life makes people linger, it is worth a visit.”

苏河家园:“Carlton Hill is an iconic Edinburgh attraction known for its neoclassical complex, 360-degree city views and rich cultural activities. The design inspiration is based on the Parthenon in Athens. The Greek-style columns on the top of the mountain are magnificent, like the skeleton of a temple solidified by time, and they quietly guard Edinburgh. ‌”

coo***an:“Five Sisters Zoo is quite large and is divided into two major areas. One is the small animal area where you can touch and feed the animals. The other area is for larger animals, which require protection from wire mesh and other protective measures. It feels pretty good overall.”

Monkeyo:“Highlights: The two 30-meter-high horse head statues made of steel sheets are spectacular yet delicate, and are perfect for taking photos all day against the backdrop of the surrounding open space; Disadvantages: The parking lot in the park is charged and fills up quickly in good weather or on weekends, but you can park at the nearby Falkirk Stadium and then walk through Helix Park to visit.”

werduy:“This is a great historical location. Of course I am into the ruins and all that entails, but regardless fun! Kissing the stone does require you to hang update down over the castle wall but it iscompletely safe. The grounda are beautiful andpeaceful. We came on a rainy day so crowds may have been smaller due to that. Be sure to plan for a few hours to see as much as possible. Easily 4 or more.”
