This unassuming marker in space 23 of a public parking lot is the place were John Knox, one of the leaders of the Protestant Reformation; some consider him to be the founder of the Presbyterian denomination. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Knox Knox's hero was John Calvin. Rumor has it that Knox did not really want anyone to know where he was buried because he didn't want a shrine or a big deal made of him personally, rather a big deal made of the great God that he believed in.
Just a cool set of phone booths!
This is Edinburgh Castle, it was quite and amazing site, and even to this day in part of the castle grounds there are working military operations. There is A National War Memorial on the grounds where the names of all the Scottish men and women who have given their lives for their country are listed in book after book in this Memorial. Obviously out of respect no photos were allowed in the Memorial, but it was still quite humbling to set foot in those halls.
