Edinburgh's Day and Night

It was a sunny morning that we had a gentle walk on the Royal Mile. Sunlight shined on the city and appeared as golden pavements.




We visited the Elephant House, which is a cafe where J.K. Rowling wrote her first "Harry Potter" series. I enjoyed the environment there with a slice of White Chocolate Pistachio Cake in company with a hot Mocha. I could literally feel the atmosphere of Rowling bearing Harry Potter here. 



Must-visit attractions: Edinburgh Castle and St. Giles Cathedral. We didn't had enough time so didn't get in the Castle. The Cathedral is not as big but it is unique with its window paintings. 



The Edinburgh Christmas Market is not as big as London's Winter Wonderland, but lots of Scottish local food could be found. We tasted Apple Strudel, German sausages, homemade mushroom with onions, etc.
