The houses on this street in Edinburgh, Scotland, look as if they were taken out of a medieval series
The Royal Mile is a Scottish avenue that connects Edinburgh Castle to the Holyrood Palace. It extends over 1,8 kilometers and is full of ancient houses that give the city a unique look. Most of these cities often have a construction height restriction to avoid tall buildings from ruining their charm.
Don’t these houses look as if they were frozen in time? The picture on top is from 1847, whereas the one on the bottom is from 2021. Although the camera’s quality isn’t the best in the first photo, you can tell the government chose to preserve the houses’ original style.
