Standing at the end of Edinburgh’s historic Royal Mile with Arthur’s Seat rising behind it, the Palace brings together grand State Apartments, regal works of art and the dramatic story of Mary, Queen of Scots.

About The Experience
Your experience takes you inside one of Scotland’s most important royal residences.
Walk through the beautifully decorated State Apartments, where elaborate plasterwork ceilings, magnificent tapestries and historic works of art reflect the changing tastes of monarchs across the centuries. Visit the Throne Room, used for important ceremonial occasions, before entering the Great Gallery, the largest room in the Palace.
The Great Gallery is filled with portraits of Scotland’s legendary kings and provides an impressive setting within this working royal residence.
You’ll also discover the historic chambers associated with Mary, Queen of Scots, who lived at the Palace between 1561 and 1567. Her bedchamber, Outer Chamber and supper room remain closely connected with some of the most turbulent moments of her reign.
