This is the view wherever you walk.

I think there are very few buildings in Japan that have been standing for hundreds of years.

Before I went, I thought it would be similar to London, but the scale was completely different.

We were very nervous as we could not speak English as our native language was English, but everyone involved was very kind to us.

I quickly spent over 5,000 yen (1 pound / 197 yen) just for a light meal at a cafe 💸

Is British food bad? It is often said that, but this timeScotlandThere was also a lot of delicious food in London that I visited before.

one o’clock gun

Cannon fire is fired every day at 1:00 p.m., except Sundays.

used to be for shipstimeswas in charge of the role.

Around 12:30, a crowd of people forms where the cannon can be seen.

Even though we knew this, we were all surprised by the louder sound than we expected and laughed together afterwards. lol

It seems that a fire occurred in 2021, and it was still closed during Golden Week 2024 when we visited. The exterior remains as it is, and many people visited and took photos.

But good news! VicTriasA shop was open in Treat.

The Balmoral Hotel where Deathly Hallows was written

A five-star luxury hotel. It is said that he wrote Deathly Hallows in room 552 of this hotel.

ScotlandMuseum (Philosopher’s Stone Chess)

Free admission.ScotlandThere were exhibits about the history, culture, and ethnicity of the country.

The “Isle of Lewis chess pieces” that inspired the chess that appears in the Philosopher’s Stone were on display. Please look for it.

When I looked closely, I realized that it was so large and had so many exhibits that it would take an entire day to see it. It’s fun, and it doesn’t depend on the weather or cold, so stop by.

Places where the names of characters such as Tom Riddle are used as references

It is said that there is a cemetery that inspired names such as Tom Riddle.

St Giles Cathedral

There were beautiful stained glass windows and a magnificent pipe organ.

I refrained from taking photos due to the solemn atmosphere.

princes park

The back of Princes Street is the border with the old town.

I also enjoyed the atmosphere of the new town.

Even compared to the old city, I didn’t feel that there was a big difference in how modern it felt.

art museum

Admission is free.

ScotlandHistorical paintings and other items were on display.

Climate/clothing

I went to Golden Week in May, and it was quite cold.

I’m already sensitive to cold, so I put it under my clothes.UniqloI wore a thin down jacket and a neck warmer and it felt perfect.

The winter period is very long, with winter already starting in September and October and ending in May and June.

The best recommendation is to go in July and August.

edinburghEven though it’s from a cold region, it wasn’t overly seasoned and was healthier than I expected.

The sun rose at 5:30 and the sun set at 9:00 pm, so even at 8:00 pm it was as bright as daytime, and there were quite a few people walking around even at 9:00 pm.

For those who like Harry Potter,harry potterBy far, from the studio tour ofedinburghI wanted you to go there! !

I could feel the real thing, not something made up.
