As you walk up Castle Hill, you\u2019ll follow the footsteps of soldiers, kings, queens, and even an odd pirate or two. Psst: despite it being a world-famous attraction, some parts of the castle are still in military use! We recommend booking your tickets before your trip because they sell out well in advance. And to make it extra special, book yourself an afternoon tea session. The Tea Room, within the heart of Edinburgh Castle, embraces a combination of modern style and rugged Scottish charm.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghcastle.scot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Edinburgh Castle<\/a>, Castlehill, Edinburgh Eh1 2NG, United Kingdom<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>2.

While it isn\u2019t stated explicitly, the street is credited as the inspiration for Diagon Alley, the ever-famous shopping area in the Harry Potter books.

You\u2019ll find the statue of the pupper just outside Kirkyard. Besides being a memorial and burial ground to Bobby and a multitude of individuals from artists to scientists, it\u2019s also a hotspot for many ghost tours.
