Trip to Edinburgh ✎

I recently travelled to Edinburgh to see a special exhibition on Renaissance drawings and pictures.

These are some pictures of my day trip.

As soon as I exited the train station, I saw this enormous Victorian Gothic monument to Sir Walter Scott.

This is the National Galleries of Scotland.

It is in “The Mound” in central Edinburgh.
