Great time walking for hours through the Royal Mile in the center of Edinburgh Scotland. Prices at the restaurants in the area were surprisingly cheap. A big kettle of fresh mussels were only £8 but the whiskey was pricey. The gothic churches and buildings lining the sides of the Royal Mile with black or brown cobblestone roads was an incredible sight.
The Royal Mile is one of the most iconic streets in Edinburgh's Old Town. This succession of streets connects Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse [the official residence of the King in Scotland]. The total distance between the two royal residences is exactly one mile, giving the street its name in the 16th century. There's no better introduction to Edinburgh than a walk straight down the spine of its old town. Stretching from a hill-topping castle to a royal palace, this ramble is appropriately called the Royal Mile. Despite being crammed with tourists and kitschy shops, it's also lined with some of the city's top sights. Look closer and you'll notice narrow lanes leading to tiny squares, where you'll find a few rough edges surviving from the area's medieval heyday The Royal Mile comprises several streets - Esplanade, Castle Hill, Lawnmarket, Parliament Square, High Street and Canongate. The history of the Royal Mile dates back to the 12th century when Edinburgh was a small town surrounding the castle. The road that connected the castle to the town became known as the High Street. Here are some of the top attractions on Edinburgh's Royal Mile: Edinburgh Castle St Giles' Cathedral The Real Mary King's Close The Scotch Whisky Experience The Palace of Holyroodhouse The Museum of Edinburgh The Writers' Museum The Scottish Parliament Edinburgh's Royal Mile is also known for its lively pub scene.
It's the Royal Mile that starts at the Palace of Holyroodhouse and ends at the castle. It's not really a street name, but named for the stretch of connecting roads. In other words, Abbey Strand leads into Canongate, and then that road turns into High Street and then Lawnmarket, and so on. It will all make sense on that walk up to Castlehill. It's a fun place to be. There are so many sights to see along the way along with some very famous closes. It's no wonder why so many films are shot in this area. It's like stepping back into time, only there are modern day shops & restaurants all along it that bring you back into modern times. I think some of the notable and recognizable places would be Canongate Kirk, Parliament Square, Netherbow Port, The World's End, and Lawnmarket Square near the Upper Bow steps that takes you down to the Victoria Terrace overlooking Victoria Street. There's also entertainment along this mile long stretch. It's very common to see someone playing the bagpipes. We even heard the playing of a violin in front of the Edinburgh City Chambers. The whole area is said to be more lively during festivals with street performances. We had a great time exploring it on a lovely (but wet) November day. The rain even stopped in time for our walking tour. We couldn't have planned it any better.
The Royal Mile -- what can I say? You'll end up there because it leads to the castle. It's very touristy and, in my opinion, a bit tacky, but it's worth walking to take in the surrounding streets and views -- those are much nicer. There are some great spots in the area to explore, so take a stroll, enjoy the atmosphere, but don't linger too long. Saluti
This is THE vibrant main commercial street in Edinburgh and equivalent to Chicago's Magnificent Mile, or Manhattan's 5th Ave, or New Orleans' Bourbon St. Unlike those US main drags though, the commercial activity here is about 600 years old. The formal street name of the main street it runs along is Canongate and it runs east-west in the Old Town with Holyrood Palace on its east end and Edinburgh Castle on its west end. The mile is lined with shops, restaurants, public houses, and attractions, and any major Scottish retailer and a bunch of others will be found along the route. There are several shortish perpendicular streets that intersect it along the way, and those streets are also considered part of the Royal Mile, so it's all really a shopping district. If you're an Edinburgh tourist, you will end up walking along the Royal Mile sooner or later!
This the main stretch in Edinburgh and a must visit when you are here. It does get packed so be ready for throngs of people. There is so much to see and do here including the Edinburgh Castle on one end and scores of other historic sites all the way through. It was fun to watch the street performers doing their thang here as well.
The Royal Mile is an open corridor through part of Edinburgh lined with sites such as historical landmarks and buildings, shops, restaurants, and depending on the time of day and year street musicians. I walked through the mile a few times towards the beginning of my heritage travel trip to Scotland in July 2019 and found it quiet in the morning (6 July) and the evening (5 July). When I came full circle back to Edinburgh on 18 July, traffic was picking up - entering the thick of peak season. I utilized a handful of different businesses, watched bagpipers play, and observed some of the landmarks such as the telephone boxes/booths and the City Chambers. Fun place to go with specific tasks in mind or just meandering.
We stayed at one end of the Royal Mile by the Palace of Holyrood House. It was pretty nice to be able to walk to a lot of the things we wanted to do whilst in Edinburgh via this road. Now, do know that going east towards Edinburgh Castle is a slight uphill trek, but there are a lot of things to see and do while walking. It is a working street so watch out for cars and such. We saw too many tourists not caring about where they walk and deliver vans seeming to not care there are people in the streets. There is a lot to do on this street and most of it is suuuper touristy but it's an experience.
Edinburgh's Royal Mile is one of the most famous streets in the world and a must see for all when in Edinburgh. Established in 1500, its name comes from its tradition as a processional route for kings and queens for the last 500 years. The street is actually a little over a mile, but connects Edinburgh Castle at the very top end and the Palace of Holyroodhouse at the bottom. It is in Old Town, the historic heart of the city, and is best explored on foot. The Royal Mile is home to many restaurants, bars, and shops, and a number of attractions. Many historic buildings remain including Gladstone's Land, The Writers' Museum, and the Museum of Edinburgh. You'll find St Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile as well. You can easily spend a whole day here exploring the main street as well as the closes that connect other streets to the Royal Mile. I highly recommend joining a walking tour or even a bus tour to get your bearings on the city and learn it's deep, rich history!
Last time in Edinburgh we came here for a walk. Loved it. So naturally we came back this time around. There was a festival going on in town. And the streets were packed. And the Royal Mile so much that there really wasn't a chance to walk. People squeezing, pushing, rushing. No fun at all. Shop entrances blocked with people standing in the streets. There was just no way to enjoy any of it or to do a little shopping. Of course, the Royal Mile is a must-do for visitors. Especially for first timers. And with less people we would have stayed and enjoyed it as well. As we did before a few years ago. But this time we just stayed a few minutes and left due to the overcrowded streets. Surely some spots worth checking out if you arrive on a quiet day: Castlehill and Edinburgh Castle, the Scotch Whisky Experience, Tolbooth Kirk or the mighty St. Giles Cathedral. We'll check the Royal Mile again next time in Edinburgh of course. Maybe we get lucky.
Perhaps one of the most famous streets in Edinburgh, The Royal Mile is the heart of the old town, stretching from Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament, all the way up to Edinburgh Castle, with St Giles' Cathedral on the way, the 1.81 km walk along the Royal Mile is certainly one of the most touristy things to do while in the Scottish capital, and actually works out just over a mile. The buildings along the mile, make me think I'm not even in the UK anymore, it's a traditional old town-style street, you don't see much of here anymore, and it's just a relatively nice atmosphere. It can get quite steep and hilly at its peak, so you may want to take a couple of breaks along the way, there are some shops and cafes along the Royal Mile, including a Starbucks, with more being located along side streets. It can get very busy during major events or tourist season, so might not always be the most comfortable or magical walk that it could be, but a must-do on a trip to Scotland. 4*
This may be one of the most gorgeous stretches of road in the entire world. A mile of walkable cobblestone extends from the gate of Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Abbey, at the base of Arthur's Seat, a rocky promontory on the eastern fringes of the city. In between, you will marvel at the breath-taking gothic architecture, an uncountable number of museums, galleries, cafés, pubs, restaurants and shops, purveying the entire spectrum of goods for which Scotland is best known: tartan plaids, whiskey, bagpipes, swords, heraldic iconography, cashmere clothing and accessories, and more. Oh, and you'll find several other hidden, historical landmarks, oddities and other interesting little secrets, if you dare to venture into the various alleys, tunnels and cloisters along the way down. This is the reason you came to Edinburgh in the first place, and the memories of your experience here will be those that will stick with you the longest. History, heritage, pride: it's all here, on display, enshrined in the glory and majesty of its authenticity. Alba gu bràth!
What's the first thing that pops into your head when you hear Royal Mile.... If you know Edinburgh, then you know it's here that lies the fame Edinburgh Castle. At the top of the cobble stones sits the majestic castle that's a staple to Scotland. If you haven't been it's great to check it out. Purchase tickets ahead of time as they do sell out and are limited everyday. But if you can't make it, you'll still hear the canons being shot often from up there. The views are amazing from top looking out to the new town and even the waterfront. Plenty of souvenirs shops along the mile. They tend to caters to the holiday makers as locals tends to have their regular spots that they go to. There's loads of restaurants as well as hotels pretty much near the mile. Just over the over side you have old town where more of the gothic building are. To the other end is new town where you'll have the fancier designer shopping as well as the bigger more fancier dining. Plus loads of the bigger upscale hotels are located there. Edinburgh Waverley train station is nearby. It's a staples of Scotland where yearly it brings people. No matter what the wether is like, it'll alway brings holidays makers out to enjoy. During the summer months of August, the streets are line with performers as well as loads of show. That's the month of the Fringe Festival. One of the biggest attractions during the summer. There's also plenty of whiskey tasting which they're known for. Tons of tours that's will actually show you around the area more. Scotland is beautiful and there's loads to see. It's not just green... read more
Let this review slip through the cracks but brought it back to life after scrolling through my pics of Scotland on my phone. Traveling through Scotland it is mandatory to take a stroll in the Royal Mile to see all the historic landmarks and whiskey stores. #1 See the iconic retro red British phone booths with the cool stickers. #2 Take a few pics with the Scottish guy in his kilt playing the bag pipes. #3 walk to the top of the Edinburgh Castle for a 360 degree view of the area. #4 Find the hidden Devil's Advocate Bar and have a cold craft beer. Great experience at the Royal Mile and cant wait to visit here again. read more

Oh my... when I booked a hotel in Old Town Edinburgh, I had no idea that the place dated back 10 centuries and preserved historic buildings, cobblestone streets in the form of the Royal Mile. We just felt like we were in another world. We walked for 5 hours just taking it in. read more

Great place to visit. Walk safely down this area where some of it does not have vehicles. Watch your step, though. The cobble stones can be dangerous if not paying attention. The shops and street entertainment along with the wonderful scenery is truly a great place to be. This is in the same area of the entrance to the Edinburgh castle. read more

It's cool. All it does is it sells alcohol. And I'm not going to hate on it for doing what's it made for. However, it only sells highly expensive alcohol and it doesn't even taste good. I don't like it, but don't hate it either. read more

If in Edinburgh, you have to walk the Royal Mile which begins at the castle gate and goes downhill from there. Yes, its a street full of cheesy tourist shops and a few cafes, but where else could you find the essential Scottish souvenir of ancestor's clan tartan and symbols on every form of key chain, decal, kilt, hat, t-shirt, and other? If you come at peak tour times, just be ready for crowds. read more
Walk a mile? Of course! This is a must do whilst in Edinburgh. We started at the opposite end and walked towards the castle in the evening, plenty of cool photo ops along the way and at the end, the castle is lit up and always a sight to behold. During the day you cannot hep but fixated upon the historic fortress high atop the city. During the night you are still drawn to it as the lights shine upon the amazing Edinburgh Castle. Think of all the people throughout history who have done this over the centuries the castle has been here. The cobblestone roads to Castle rock, which has been here since the IRON AGE! Tip: walk slow and take plenty of pics and almost every step there are things to see and behold. read more
History at its best. I love walking the Royal Mile and taking in the surroundings. The alleys and closes take me back to what might have been hundreds and hundreds of years ago. The culture is rich and the architecture grand. Going to the castle at sunset gives some amazing photographs your friends are sure to envy. Don't forget to see the Palace as well. Just a great stretch of splendor, love you, Edinburgh's Royal Mile! read more

The Royal Mile is a 1.6 km stretch in Edinburgh which runs from Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Palace. There is a bit of slope 4.1% from it's peak of 358' to 138 " at Holyrood Palace. There are ally ways come into the Royal Mile that are extremely steep from the north side. J.K. Rowlings sat in cafes on the Royal Mile and penned part of her Harry Potter novels. The Royal Mile is divided into 5 sections and there are important landmarks to look for in each section. Castle Hill & Castle Esplanade - this is the oldest part of the city . Edinburgh castle is located here. The castle sits at the highest point of the Royal Mile. The esplanade in front of the castle is where the Edinburgh Military Tattoo takes place. Also look for the Cannonball House on your right as you leave the esplanade area. Lawnmarket - Before the 18th century this is where merchants sold their goods which consisted mostly of textiles. Today the area has many restaurants, cafes and pubs to choose from. The Gladstone's Land (17th century) is a house museum located at #477b. High Street- St. Giles church and Parliamentary Square are highlights of this area. The John Knox House is also something to keep an eye out for. The Great Edinburgh fire of 1824 devastated this area as well. Canongate- was a separate burgh until 1856. At Jeffrey street there are brass cobbles marking the division. Look for the Canongate Church and World's End Pub which is one of the oldest pubs in Edinburgh. Abby Strand- connects the end of Canongate where Parliament Square is located to the Palace of Holyrood. The Queen's Gallery is very close to Holyrood and has one of the best art collections in Scotland. TIP: There are many shops selling tweeds and cashmere on the Royal Mile. Tartan scarves and other apparel are also for sale. Check the labels carefully as much is made in China. read more
A definite must-see while here in Edinburgh! As it's right in the heart of all the action, you'd be hard pressed to avoid it anyway lol. So many things to see and do alone the mile! Not to mention all the shopping and food and drink! And lots of neat little "closes" which are just tiny little covered alleyways leading into quaint courtyards, some even all decorated for the holidays! We even saw a bagpipe performance and some falconry people with 2 adorable owls! read more

We walked it from Holyrood Palace up to Edinburgh Castle. It's actually a bit less than a mile. It's a gradual uphill walk and it gets busier and more crowded with people and tourist shops and eateries the closer you get to the castle. It's worth a walk if only to say you've done it once and know what it's about. There are a few places of historic significance along the mile that a good guide or guidebook could point out to you. We're glad we walked it but don't plan to do it again. read more

Well, not sure why this is on Yelp since it's basically THE destination for all of Edinburgh, but it's getting lively around here rn as things reopen, and lots of lovely musicians, artists, shops, and people to meet on the Royal Mile. Lots of historic closes (small alleyways), and historical markers to explore. read more

The Royal Mile is a must visit when in Edinburgh - Beautiful, Historic and Quaint! An amazing place to witness the Historic Scottish Architecture. The place is lined with Restaurants, Cashmere and Lamb Wool Garment Shops, Scottish Souvenir and Gift Shops. read more
If you're in Edinburgh, you almost have to TRY to not stroll along The Royal Mile. My first recommendation for those thinking of a trip to Edinburgh: Go in August! Sure, it's busy, but that's when the good stuff is happening, in particular the Fringe Festival and the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo! It was amazing being in the large procession of people as we took The Royal Mile to the Tattoo arena at Edinburgh Castle. The Royal Mile is where the action is: The Hub (a one-time Victorian Church that has a cafe ... the Edinburgh International Festival throughout August); the Scotch Whisky Experience (another must-do); statues (Adam Smith, David Hume, King Charles II, the Duke of Buccleuch, etc); St. Giles Cathedral; Parliament Square; the Heart of Midlothian (in front of the Tollbooth Prison); the Castle Esplanade ... and, of course, Edinburgh Castle. You'll also find some great shopping. I recommend going to the Woollen Mill and Marchbrae (gotta get some cashmere in Edinburgh!), the Fudge Kitchen, the Geoffrey Kiltmaker, and the zillion whiskey and cigar shops on the Mile. And food? Yes, there are pubs and little restaurants. While not technically on the Royal Mile, we ate at Ecco Vino ... and it was amazing. It's a beautiful area. Like me, I hope you'll go back again and again. read more
