Royal Mile — A HoHo Passenger's Walking Map

The Royal Mile runs from Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Palace. It's dense with attractions — plan your walk.

Quick eats and pubs

Traditional: Try a local pie or Scotch broth.
Pubs: Historic pubs line the closes — good for a quick pint after the castle.

Hidden closes and small museums

Mary King's Close — underground streets and living-history tours.
The People's Story Museum — social history focused.

Timing

Allow 1.5–3 hours to soak the Royal Mile properly. Short on time? Focus on one museum or a pub stop.
