Description Wfm scottish parliament construction.jpg |
English:
Construction continues on
Enric Miralles
' elaborate new complex for the seat of the
Scottish Parliament
in Holyrood park (opposite
Holyrood Palace
, and below
Arthur's Seat
). The spikey white building to the left is not part of the parliament - it is "Our Dynamic Earth", a science exhibition space. Above the new parliament, half-way up the Calton Hill behind it, is the neoclassical
Old Royal High School
, which was prepared for a previous devolved Scottish parliament, but never used. On top of the Calton Hill are several monuments, including the squat, naval-rigged tower, a monument to
Horatio Nelson
.
