Edinburgh, Scotland Part 2

Good Evening,

I hope everyone has had a good week. We are finally approaching October this week which is unexpected because time flies by quickly. Anyways, I started a series about a trip I took to Scotland in 2017. This week, we will talk about Edinburgh with some of its magnificent attractions throughout the Old Town & New Town.

First, we arrived in Edinburgh where the city is beautiful with its unique architecture such as castles. If anyone has seen castles in the movies, Edinburgh Castle (which falls on the Old Town) fits into the description. We saw the rich history of canyons, armor, and a tourist gift shop. The tickets do not cost much and everyone can learn something while exploring here.

Side Note: Old Town refers to the historic part of the city which falls on Edinburgh Castle all the way down to Holyrood Palace. It feels that anyone can walk back in time to the medieval period. New Town features the architecture from the 18th/19th century which a touch of elegance. It features Princes Street which a section that holds a lot of shops & George Street.

The second attraction that I personally went to on my own leisure was the Camera Obscura & World of Illusions which is self explanatory considering the fact that is a walk through of different illusions. It has six flight of stairs, however we starting at the top which showed us a great of Scotland, then we worked our way down to each floor.

The Edinburgh Castle and Camera Obscura were jut two of the main attractions that the city has to offer. Tune in for more information about Holyrood Palace, Arthurs’ Seat, and more. Thank you and hope you all have a good start to the week.
