Скачать или смотреть Edinburgh, Holyroodhouse, the Kings Royal Palace.

The Royal Mile is part of a series of streets forming a steep thoroughfare in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town.

A new community garden opened in 2020 with three distinct areas each representing a stage in the palace's 900-year old Palace.
The Holyroodhouse is a witness to Mary Queen of Scott’s dramatic life and the brutal and mysterious murder of David Rizzio inside the Palace.
After Queen Elizabeth’s death, her body was kept in the Holyrioodhouse in September 2022, overnight before being taken to London.

King Charles III spends one week in residence at Holyroodhouse at the beginning of summer, where he carries out a range of official engagements and ceremonies. The 16th-century historic apartments of Mary, Queen of Scots, and the State Apartments, used for official and state entertaining, are open to the public throughout the year, except when members of the royal family are in residence. The Palace also serves as the official residence of the Lord High Commissioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland during the annual meeting of the General Assembly.

Mary, Queen of Scots ascended the throne at just 6 days old. She became Queen Consort of France at 16 and was widowed at 17. After returning to Scotland she fell in lust with her handsome cousin. But the honeymoon ended abruptly when her new groom stabbed her friend 56 times in front of her. Mary probably had him strangled and then quickly married again, to her second husband’s murderer. But as they say, marry in haste, repent over the course of your 19 year imprisonment. Queen Mary then got herself entangled in a plot to overthrow her lifelong rival, Queen Elizabeth I. But instead of wearing the English crown, Mary’s head ended up on an English chopping block.
