Edinburgh

My 1st stop of the trip - Edinburgh...

I must say it's quite a quiet city... very peaceful, a bit sleepy...

The town itself is entirely explorable on foot. We headed over to Edinburgh Castle and here's our 1st view of it..view of edinburgh castle More information can be found here. For a 3D tour of the castle, go here

The castle is real big, they do run complementary tours at intervals which help you understand more about the castle.

Recommended time to spend: 2 hours
Off Peak Tickets (Nov to Feb): Adult 10 pounds, Children 5 - 15: 5 pounds, Senior Citizens: 7 pounds
Can't find peak season prices, shall update when i see it.

It's really quite expensive, but then everything else is expensive because of the pounds. I must say the views are pretty impressive! : )
