The Dark Castle was built in the 15th century for the then most powerful Crichtons in Scotland, in the small town of Blackness, in the north west of Edinburgh. The Dark Castle was used as a royal castle, building and armoury. In recent years, the castle has been restored and opened to the public. It has been a location for many well-known films, including Hamlet (1990), The Bruce (1996), BBC TV drama Ivanhoe (1997), and the science fiction film Doomsday (2008). The Dark Castle is also called the “Never-Going Boat” because it looks like a huge stone boat. From the castle you can enjoy the beautiful views of the bay around.

Scotland’s historic castle where you can take tours around the property to understand the architecture and history of Ancient Scotland. the audio guide tour was also helpful. The place was beautiful and serene with behind the back backdrop of Scottish highlands.

This ancient castle is a very long historical building. The long history of the castle is quite attractive. You need to take a car and walk a distance. It is said that this is also a private place. [View] The scenery is beautiful [Fun] Learn about the history of the castle

Lauriston Castle is one of the highlights of this trip. It is very interesting to take a sightseeing double-decker bus in the city. There is a stop to this castle. The building is beautiful and spectacular. The photos are particularly beautiful! Recommended, you can play for most of the day

Mons Meg is a more well-known attraction in Edinburgh. The unique location of the fort allows tourists to come here, overlooking the entire city, a great experience, and a detailed historical introduction, which is very interesting.

A must-check in place for American fans! ! ! The first stop on the day was Duane Castle. This charming 14th century castle is quite high in the film and TV industry, so it should be very easy to identify. Duane Castle has appeared in the shooting of "Giant and Holy Grail" (Monty Python and the Holy Grail) . In addition, the castle is also used to represent Winter City in the first season of "Game of Thrones". The castle of the Stark family's ancestral heritage, as the capital and center of power in the North, witnessing the glory and strife of the King Stark family of the North. At the same time, this castle is still the fictional Lishi Castle in "Legend of the Ancient Battlefield".
