St
Giles Cathedral. This cathedral is dedicated to the patron
saint of Edinburgh, and of lepers and the handicapped. Its heavy, dark Gothic
style fits with the brooding castle a few minutes away and the rest of the
sooty buildings on the Royal Mile.
Thistle Chapel. The
chapel is a delightful surprise—a small, brightly decorated, colorful, fanciful
gem buried in the gloomy cathedral. Famous royals Prince Charles, Prince
William, and Prince Philip were knighted here.
