At the end of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile stands the official residence in Scotland of Her Majesty The Queen. The palace is open throughout the year and offers visitors the chance to learn how The Queen uses it today when carrying out official meetings and also to explore some of Scotland’s most well-known historic figures such as Mary Queen of Scots and Bonnie Prince Charlie.
Our recommendation: make your way to the Holyrood Palace from the Castle walking down the Royal Mile and then enjoy the back gardens facing Arthur’s Seat – perfect for picnics and family days out!
