Over the 70 years she reigned as Monarch, the Queen visited the Scottish Capital countless times and attended thousands of public engagements in the city.
During childhood and throughout her reign, she spent an abundance of time at the ancient royal Palace of Holyroodhouse, which is found at the bottom of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh.
Here are 10 pictures of some of the Queen’s most memorable visits to Edinburgh throughout the years.
