This iReport is part of an assignment:
Travel Snapshots: Paris |
Scotland, part 6, Edinburgh
1 Downtown Edinburgh with Edinburgh castle in the background. Shot from Calton Hill. Most definitely worth the effort to hike up the hill
2 The Palace of Holyroodhouse where the queen hangs out when in town
3 The Scott monument with the Balmoral hotel in the background
4 Edinburgh castle on a gloomy afternoon
5 Another shot of the castle from Calton Hill
6 Calton burial grounds cemetery with a monument to the Scots who fought and died in the US’ Civil War
7 The Balmoral hotel at night
8 Last shot of the castle. This was shot from the Hilton hotel. We snuck in, took the elevator up and found a custodian’s closet with windows overlooking the castle. Sneaky but worth the effort!
