Title
Scottish Parliament and Holyrood Palace from Arthur's Seat
Description
A bird's eye view of the Scottish Parliament and Holyroodhouse from Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh. The modern buildings are on many different levels and are partially clad with wooden shapes. Some of the roofs are covered with grass. To its right Holyroodhouse and Abbey stands in their grounds surrounded by trees. Behind the Parliament and the buildings of the Canongate, a large graveyard can be seen. The monuments of Calton Hill stand proud against the sky overlooking the Firth of Forth and the Fife coastline.
