I got lucky to visit during the evening choir. It was really peaceful. Loved it. You can also take photos inside for free, unlike St. Giles.

Big, grand and beautiful. Also a bit off the tourist trail so very empty as well. You can wander round, take photos (respectfully and not during service) and have a nice peaceful experience, unlike St. Giles where you have to pay to take pics. As a result I left a donation in the box on the way out, it was... More

attended a spring gala concert given by Edinburgh University Music Society chorus and sinfonia. Wonderful concert, great venue (a bit chilly, but that's to be expected in Scotland in March!).

I had time, and I was passing, so I looked in. It's a nice peaceful, holy atmosphere. I've often wished I could attend a concert or attend Sunday worship there one day, but the opportunity hasn't arisen yet.

Must admit that we passed by this Cathedral many times before climbing the steps and reading the fascinating history of how it came to be.

Vast 19th-century building with additions including a world famous Music School. If you can, stay for a service where the Choir perform - they are brilliant and broadcast on the BBC frequently. The organ used to be a little lacking in thunderous bass notes but that has been put right...and how!

It was a nice place, but not much of historical interest inside (although many hangings took place outside) except a wedding of one of Queen Mary's attendants. It is wheelchair accessible, and is free. It has an interesting interior.

A real jewel in the centre of of a busseling city. A wonderful place to take a time out. When I visited it was undergoing major refurbishment but im sure this work has been completed by now.
