ScotlandStory (part 6)

This is VeryOldInn...

...The Old Rosslyn Inn (1680 - 1866),

 And this is VeryOldChapel...

...Rosslyn Chapel (built between 1446 - 1484).

It is very interesting building to see despite you are not interested about the religious cases at all. It makes you to wonder all the work craftsmen did on that time.

It has many different styled Carvings all over the building; in and out.

The downpipes must have created fascinating function with the water.

It is quiet place with lot of tourists. Many people just come and go. Still you can find peaceful moments there. If you have a walk around you can see more.

The Old Cemetery for example. 

If you want to travel around Edinburgh Rosslyn area is one good place to stay. It is cheap to take a bus to Edinburgh City Centre (just 1,50£ single ticket) despite it takes almost one hour to get there. But during the journey you can just sit down and enjoy the views.

On our backpack travel around Scotland we visited Urquhart Castle and Rosslyn Chapel. And that was enough for us at T H I S time to fill our apetite investigating historical buildings with many stories. No other castle or chapel or big museum was needed. These two places gave us all so much to think about that we are still thinking about it all...
