Edinburgh Castle is one of the best attractions in Scotland. Although you are not history person you can still enjoy some of the best views of the city from the top of the castle. There are different view points at various stages to look the beautiful city which is mix of traditional rocky buildings with new buildings in the mix. We have lot museums and movie shows with a lot of items from world war 2 and British colonial history captured and documented. Be prepared to walk a lot but there are lot of places to sit, relax and take nice photos. Crown jewels is the place which is too much crowded with a lot of wait time which we Didn't visit. But if you want cover everything going all places and taking photos you need good 4-5 hours. There are toilet facilities. The road up to the entrance of castle is so alive and when we visited there is Tattoo festival in the evening so it is much more busier. The royal mile outside of castle has lot of activities with wonderful artists playing music that is so lovely. It was great experience with stunning views from the castle. If you are visiting in a bus or car only allowed time up hill was until 5 PM, afterwards you need to walk down hill for about 10-15 minute for vehicle pick up points.
