Tah dah ! Edinburgh Castle !
London cab
from the top of Edinburgh Castle
long queue eh ?
the window to the other world...
It was so windy up here. The speed of the wind is around 60Km/h and I can't really hold my camera properly.
BOOM !!!
me and cannon
Ok, this is real interesting. Let you figure it out by yourself. The clock point at 1p.m, there is a red tower, on top of the tower is a cannon ball, and a cannon on top of the castle...interesting isn't it ? guess what is it...
Ok, stop cracking your head. Read above to find out the previous clue :p
Wow...wedding at Edinburgh Castle. How cool is that ? The bride is very beautiful but the bridegroom is a bit aging :( "ah moi cantik kahwin ah pek!" sigh, I never thought this phrase is true until recently. Why ~!?!?!?!
a short sketch from this two english man. It's a story about the King of Great Britain on how he rule the world country and how he was killed.
...can you see anything ?
Well, there are some pictures drawn on the door. The prisoners sketched their strategies on the door of how actually their troops were being arranged to attack the castle.
The prisoners were being kept long enough (maybe for life) in the prison to make their own note in order to trade in the prison. This is their note making tools.
The white piece of paper is actually the banknote they use and it was made of bone. Which mean some of the prisoners were sentence to prison for life and they were not even get buried upon their death.
British battle ship
These are made of bones !!
military prison
main entrance

There is actually a part where we visit a room where they kept the crown of the Majesty as well as His sword, shield, jewelery and treasures. We were not allow to take any of the photos inside the room since it's the national treasure. But, it's in our memory of all time. It's very memorable and highly recommended to pay a visit if possible.

Alright, that's all about the Edinburgh Castle. Do you enjoy yourself ? :p
