Edinburgh Castle Ticket

With origins dating back nearly 3,000 years, Edinburgh Castle dominates the city below. It's a fortified complex and despite the many conflicts, battles and political intrigues it was host to over the centuries, its beautiful walls have nevertheless survived it all. Over the centuries, many legends were born there, including that of the Stone of Scone (Stone of Destiny), an ancient artefact linked to the crown of Scotland. The stone, which for a long time had been in the hands of the English, was finally returned to the Scottish people at the end of the twentieth century.
