Scotland's Capital city, Edinburgh is dominated by the Castle.
And och! what a Castle it tis!

Started on Castle Rock, the Castle was originally surrounded by a wooden stockade. Over the years it was built upon and built upon. It has everything your castle's heart could desire, from Meg Mons, the biggest cannon in Scotland (maybe even the world!), to dark and dank dungeons, to a plaque marking the site of witch burings, to Saint Margaret's Chapel, to the birthing bed where Mary Queen of Scots gave life to the infant James Stuart, to a pet cemetary built into the sides of the rock.

This turn of the century postcard shows the Castle from the
same vantage as the above pic, labeled in the card as
"the haystacks."

It's no a verra good idea to annoy tha sentries.

What view of Edinburgh would be complete without
the infamous Tolbooth?
