The HolyRoodhouse, at the other end of the Royal Mile. More pictures later....
This castle is where the present queen spends her summers. It's also the scene of a grisly murder. Lord Darnley had grown jealous of Mary, Queen of Scots' Italian secretary. He & other conspirators captured Rizzio while he was dining with Mary. They stabbed him 56 times. Obviously, that was the end of their marriage! He died mysteriously in an explosion a few months later.
