Edinburgh Trip

The next day after trip to Loch Lomond, ck went to edinurgh (capital of scotland) which was organised by International Student Society.

This is a self-travel trip. Once we reached there, we had 5hrs to travel with reference to the map provided. First, we went to edinburgh castle. Since we need to pay entrance ticket, so I just took some picture around this castle.

Next another germany borned malaysian with me went to National Museum of Scotland (free admission). This is a truly scottish based museum, with all the stories about history, industry, deveplopment, culture of scotland.

Then passed by national monument, and we went to the National Galleries of Art (it's free). Unfortunately, we're not allow to take pictures. A lot of old paints displyed here. Some paints have 300-400 history.

Then we went to scottish parliament and Palace of Holyroodhouse (official residence in the scotland for her majesty the queen). Unlike other goverment building in other places, i noticed that building of scottish parliament very creative, it looks like creative art studio rather than a coutry's administration centre.haha.

basically, compared with other friends, we travelled to alot tourist spots. However, still have several nice places haven't visit, i.e. royal botanical garden and a few museums.
