Why Do They Call It The Royal Mile?

The Royal Mile spans between two pivotal sites in Scotland’s royal legacy: Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Its name originates from its historical role as the ceremonial path for monarchs, measuring roughly one Scottish mile, which equals 1.8072576 kilometers in modern terms.
