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.
Sir Walter Scott.
This is the National Galleries of Scotland.
It is in “The Mound” in central Edinburgh.
I visited the European art galleries.
Gardens of “The Mound”. Beautiful spot.
Monument to 18th-century Scottish poet Allan Ramsay in West Princes Street Gardens.
The statue overlooks the gardens and Edinburgh Castle in the background.
The iconic Edinburgh Castle.
I walked past these burial grounds kirkyard.
Charming, like most of Edinburgh’s Old Town.
The King’s Gallery in Edinburgh.
The Palace of Holyroodhouse.
I popped into this historic palace to see some Dutch masters.
Wow, I really enjoyed these pictures. I will probably get to go there so seeing the pictures is so nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary 👍
DeleteThanks for the tour! I've never been to Edinburgh.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see these photos of such beautiful Architecture .
ReplyDeleteThe Palace of Holyroodhouse, for royals of course, is the nicest structure to look at because the colour of the walls is lighter. Dark walls are not as suitable in a wet or cool climate.
ReplyDeleteYes, you're right hels. I didn't notice that.
DeleteI'm glad to see the sights.
