	Edinburgh Castle Edinburgh (City Centre) Telephone: 0131 225 9846 Website: www.historic-scotland.gov.uk

	One of Britain's most impressive castles, Edinburgh Castle really is a must-see if you're visiting this lovely city. There's lots to see here - including the royal palace-, which is home to the famous Stone of Destiny (used in the coronation of Scottish kings );the Great Hall with its beautiful stained glass, and impressive armour; and don't forget the stunning views over the city. If you have a sleeping baby with you, make sure you take shelter inside one of the buildings just before 1 o'clock - even the heaviest sleeper would do well to sleep through the 1 o'clock gun - the cannon fired daily (except Sundays) - but older children will love it! There are two cafes and also gift shops. A parent & baby room is located near the entrance gates, and there are baby-changing facilities in the cafes.
