Edinburgh Castle is a historical fortress situated on Castle Rock in Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. These are a few pictures I took of doors during our tour of this famous castle.
The three pictures below are of the view of Edinburgh from the castle. Lots of doors.

These are fabulous pictures! The prison door is kind of sad and scary. It bet it’s an emotional experience in person.

Most old places are quite emotional for me. They are full of the ghostly presences of people from the past.

I’m so glad they preserved the original prison doors, that’s great to see. I love the aerial views from the castle. The first shot ot the entrance is magnificent. I would love to visit.

It is a great place to visit, Dan. I’m glad you liked the aerial photographs. I have a few of the boats on the Danube too. Boats have doors [smile].

Great shots. That prison door looks like it has been through a lot. Visiting old castles are one of main reasons I hope to visit Scotland one day.
Take care and thanks for participating 🙂

My pleasure, Norm. There are also loads of wonderful castles in the UK. I visit at least four during every trip to the UK.

That prison door looks as if someone tried to chew his way out.

HI Yvette, I’m glad you enjoyed these pictures. When we visited last year, it was during August and virtually impossible to get a picture without crowds of people.

Edinburgh Castle was not my favourite, John [don’t tell Terence]. I didn’t think it had a patch on Dunvegan Castle with its amazing garden and fairy flag. The view was stunning.

But some cool doors nonetheless! My wife and I are planning our trip for next summer and clinging to the fact that the vaccine’s will be fully distributed her by April/May if it goes to plan! I tell her we will need our passport and our covid card to board a plane, showing we were vaccinated!

Everytime I see your posts from Scotland I itch to visit the country. Beautiful selection. My favorite is the dungeon door! Darth Vader’s theme plays in my head while looking at it.

Your comment about Darth Vader made me smile, Micah. It reminded me of the references made to Darth Vader in the movie, A Night at the Museum, staring Robin William. The ‘real’ villains were very rude about Darth Vader who they didn’t consider to be a real villain.

Another place I’d like to visit, Robbie. (I noticed all the tourists, of course). The dungeon door is really cool and pretty creepy. Thanks for the mini tour!

HI Diana, I imagine there are no tourists now. It’s quite a weird idea to think of all these beautiful places all empty and quiet.
