Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle Scotland travel: Inside Edinburgh Castle, first terrace. The six of us minimized the somewhat expensive admission price by purchasing a multi-day, multi-castle family pass. This paid for itself after this first castle. The pass allowed us 'no additional charge' access to literally dozens of other castles around Scotland, all while we were staying at Dalhousie Castle. (2:10) Send this video to a friend.

Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle. To the inner courtyard, including a view of the living statue called the Beefeater. Our accomodations at Dalhousie Castle had no Beefeaters, nor did Culzean Castle. Then again, those castles did not house Royal Jewels! (1:42) Send this video to a friend. Leave/View Comments |

Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle "Prisoners of War" Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle "Prisoners of War" exhibition. "In the late 18th and 19th centuries, parts of the castle were used as a jail to hold captured sailors of many nationalities. Among them were citizens of the newly independant USA, still seen as rebels by the British...[this] experience in the castle vaults vividly recalls the conditions the captives endured." (From the guide to Edinburgh Castle pamphlet.) We know that the dungeon of Dalhousie Castle housed it's fair share of prisoners, and Culzean Castle probably held captives in it's cliffside caves.

Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle Mons Meg Mons Meg is a HUGE canon, among Europe's oldest surviving medieval bombards. Fantastic views and the cemetary where officers have buried their pets since the 1840's. Some kids enjoying the echo of Mons Meg.Scotland travel: Edinburgh Castle, Mons Meg, a HUGE cannon, among Europe's oldest surviving medieval bombards. A 22 inch barrel fired a 396 pound ball almost 2 miles, but only 8 to 10 times a day due to the heat generated by the blast. From this pearch, we has fantastic city views, and one view of the cemetery where officers have buried their pets since the 1840's. Then, some kids enjoying the echo of Mons Meg. Dalhousie Castle and Culzean Castle, where we stayed on this trip, each had their own canons, but obviously no where near as large as Mons Meg. (1:43) Send this video to a friend.
