    The Castle Grounds is like a village square. It has been under siege 26 times in its history.

    Edinburgh Castle

    14 juli 2025, Skottland 🌧 16 °C

    I don’t normally enjoy tours, preferring to just explore.
    Getting tickets to Edinburgh Castle in summer is a plan ahead type scenario…and I didn’t.
    So I payed a ridiculous amount for a tour and it was fabulous.
    Ben C our guide explained the history of the Castle and how it came to be. It is the only permanently inhabited castle since it was first built. There are still british soldiers residing there as it is a military base.
    They still fire the canon daily (for the ships to check their clocks - 1pm).
    Ben C said Scotland and England have an unhappy marriage - only staying together for the kids (the Welsch).
    It was such fun and an impressive place to visit.    Läs mer
