Edinburgh is a place where many amazing things can happen and many
amazing things can be seen. It is worth to visit Edinburgh and have a
plan to see there most important elements - if we can find there a lot
of things and have a lack of time we should decide on something. Here
you can find list of four subjective things.
Castle
That lies upon the town is a part of the town that can't be left
unmentioned. This amazing building had in the history the major meaning
in wars. Today it isn't playing the same role but it still makes a huge
impression - on tourists. This castle is a mix of different traditions
and trends which shows that the castle played different roles during the
ages. Now it doesn't have anything in common with war or army but has
become a symbol of the town.
National Gallery Complex
It is situated in the center of the Edinburgh on the Princess
Street, is the most important attractions not only in the city but also
in whole Scotland (the entrance is for free). The Gallery consists of
three connected with each other buildings and presents inside major of
what has left after the ages of changing culture in Scotland but not
only that. Collections has pieces of arts of some famous artists like El
Greco, Velázquez, Rembrandt, Rubens, Van Gogh, Monet, Cézanne, and
many, many more. But there are also Scottish artists like Ramsay,
Raeburn, Wilkie i McTaggart. Really worth to visit!
Palace
This palace was for the last time a royalty house in 1617. It is
worth to see this place just even to see audiovisual exhibition of
Honors of Scotland - Scottish royalty jewels, with originals in the
Crown Room, on the end of the exhibitions halls. These great jewels that
come from the restoration bring memory about the history of Scotland.
For the last time they play their role in 1651, when Carol II had his
coronation.
Royalty Mile
It is a common name for the combination of streets, that gives a
main road to Edinburgh Old Market. It is one of the most crowded streets
in Edinburgh. You can find there different shops with Scottish Whiskey,
kilts and handmade products. On this street we can also find a saint
Idzi Cathedral, the one and only church that was built in middle ages
and has left till today. In this street we can find a Parliament House,
that was built in the beginning of 17th age.
