    Historic cemetery and Presbyterian Church with such long and distinguished history. The place feels silent and solemn with people being respectful of the place.

    This very small chapel is within the walls of the castle - worth a look. A wedding took place in the chapel while we were visiting the castle.

    Excellent Masjid within close reach to all the local city amenities, prayer and Wudhu facilities are in an excellent well kept order and the masjid is easily accessible for both Males and Females. For non Muslims looking to visit this facility your most welcome, just call the Masjid/Mosque before attending and they will be most happy to have someone show you around.

    South Leith Parish Church can be found in the heart of Leith in Edinburgh . South Leith Parish Church is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. It is the principal church and congregation in Leith, in Edinburgh. It stands just beyond the foot of Leith Walk and is surrounded by a large graveyard which is a very quiet place in such an urban environment. The graveyard is the burial place for the playwright John Home and John Pew. You can find here a large number of 19th century gravestones , some 18th century stones with memento mori carvings and a big family of squirrels.

    This church is gorgeous but very fat. I like the colour of it and it looks roman. It's absolutely amazing and I recommend it.

    Built in 1932 to accommodate over 1000 members ,it was reconstructed to seat 500 in 1980 and has a community centre incorporated into the building .. Regular services are held on Friday evening, Saturday morning, and Sunday morning . This is a very active congregation and there are a lot of activities through the week . Quite close to the Commonwealth Pool where parking is available

    I’ve been keen to see this chapel for years…and passed by it today and it was open. A very knowledgeable gentleman told me the fascinating history of the chapel. Built just before the reformation in 1540’s as a Catholic chapel, then supported by the Guild of Hammernan as a Protestant place of worship till the late 1800’s
    Stained glass roundals are amazing but so is the rest , it is the history of Scottish reformation in one small and beautiful building
