Mention Edinburgh and the first thing you think of is the Castle.
Standing high in the middle of the city, Edinburgh Castle has dominated the skyline for centuries. The castle played a major role in the wars of Independence and has been a military base since the 17th century.
Edinburgh Castle is Scotland's leading tourist destination and is part of Edinburgh World Heritage Site.
