Alright, some pictures of Edinburgh. It indeed deserved the title "Prettiest City in Europe". Perhaps I didn't do justice as the pictures I took ain't that nice. But hack, at least I tried. |
|
|
 |
|
|
A shame that I was alone for this trip, didn't have a guide, so I really don't know what most of the things were. |
|
|
 |
|
|
I just took a picture of whatever I think is nice. |
|
|
 |
|
|
A lot of old buildings actually have a clock on it, like in this one. |
|
|
 |
|
|
A view of the 6th century castle. The Edinburghers are really proud of their rich history. Well preserved yeah? |
|
|
 |
|
|
Traffic and parking is really horrible in the city centre, just like orchard road, if not worse. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Don't know the name of the palace, forgot already. But part of the palace on Calton Hill. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Like roman empire eh? Still on Calton Hill actually. |
|
|
 |
|
|
To bore you out, I am still on Calton Hill. |
|
|
 |
|
|
On Calton Hill also, but looking down to the city centre this time. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Well, I think you can guess where is this view from by now, yes, Calton Hill. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Actually same as previous pic if you look carefully, dunno why I put this in, but lazy to remove now. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Ok, finally off Calton Hill, now a view of some of the older houses around the Castle. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Yes, finally the castle, pretty and mighty on a hill yeah? |
|
|
 |
|
|
I love this one, I think it's one of the prettiest I have taken, yes, the castle. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Night view of the castle |
|
|
 |
|
|
This is leith water, a narrow water way which drains Edinburgh. Edinburgh is considered on highland anyway. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Some housing alongside leith water, nice view, and I think should cost a bomb too. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Took me great pains to take pictures along leith anyway, It was drizzling and muddy and there were some fallen trees from the 90 knots wind blocking the paths. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Still in the leith part, well this is actually the max I can go, the ahead path is too watery and muddy and dangerous too. Like the river rapids. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Pretty houses again. |
|
|
 |
|
|
The note will end with houeses now. Nice city huh? I love it. |
