Palace of Holyroodhouse

The official Scottish residence of the British monarch, located at the end of the Royal Mile. The palace contains richly decorated historic rooms, royal apartments, and stories connected to Mary Queen of Scots. Adjacent to the palace stand the ruins of Holyrood Abbey, dating from the 12th century, which create a striking contrast between an active royal residence and medieval history.
