Ep #3 Edinburgh | Castle | Kelpis | Falkrik Wheel

Day three was a whirlwind of engineering genius, mythical beasts, and historic majesty. Our morning began at the incredible Falkirk Wheel, a rotating boat lift that defies belief. We didn't just see it; we experienced its powerful, elegant mechanics firsthand, watching it connect the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. Next, we had a brief but unforgettable stop to marvel at The Kelpies, two towering, 30-meter-high horse-head sculptures. Their gleaming, intricate stainless steel forms were breathtaking, but we soon had to rush to our next destination: a quick photo-op of the awe-inspiring Forth Bridge, a true marvel of Victorian engineering that spans the Firth of Forth. We then headed straight into Edinburgh, making a brief but scenic drive that gave us tantalizing glimpses of the city's highlights, including the towering Scott Monument and the stately government buildings, all before settling down for lunch. The afternoon was dedicated to history. We trekked up the steep steps and navigated the cobbled streets to reach the iconic Edinburgh Castle. From the castle's ramparts, we were rewarded with a spectacular panoramic view of the entire city, stretching all the way to the port and the Firth of Forth. We were incredibly fortunate to catch a viewing of the magnificent Scottish Crown Jewels—a truly dazzling sight! Finally, we descended into the heart of the Old Town, wandering down the historic Royal Mile. The air was alive with the sound of bagpipers, the sights of talented street artists, and the buzz of countless shops and taverns. We soaked up the atmosphere of the ancient streets, but the late evening soon called us back to the coach for dinner before heading back to the hotel. A truly unforgettable day! #ScotlandTrip #FalkirkWheel #EngineeringMarvel #TheKelpies #SculptureArt #ForthBridge #Edinburgh #EdinburghCastle #ScottishHistory #CrownJewels #RoyalMile #OldTownEdinburgh #Bagpipes #TravelGram #ScottishAdventure
