My daughter and I included a visit to this small chapel at the persistence of my daughter. She recently finished reading the DaVinci Code and knew about the chapel. My cousin (a longtime resident of Edinburgh) agreed to drive us because she had never visited the chapel. All of us were so glad we made the effort. It was fascinating... more

It is very easy to reach Rosslyn Chapel from Edingburgh city center. We took hourly Lothian bus and it tool 30-40 mins. From the Rosslyn Chapel bus stop, cross the street and walk along the beautiful suburban road for 5-10 minutes and you'll find the chapel of legend. This small chapel is full of wonder I'd say. Not a single... more

This is not to be missed. We went to Edinburgh for our honeymoon, but we had been there before. We loved the chapel, the surrounding glen, and castle. It is fantastic for history, the views, and the reality of the place. It is not like the movie, which is a bonus. Please take a guided tour, and learn all about... more

My husband and another couple visited the Rosslyn Chapel in May. We took the bus from Edinburg, and walked to the Chapel. We wandered on the scaffolding that surrounds the outside of the building before entering the chapel. Although we arrived early a few people started to arrive by the time we entered the chapel. Our guide was a young... more

This small chapel outside of Edinburgh is well worth a visit, it is wonderful. The interior is full of lovely stonework with multitudes of carvings of angels, "green men", couples and even a horned Moses. The docents are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. It is a little hard to locate, but keep the faith, it's a place you'll find fascinating. more

We took bus 15 from St Andrews Sq in Edinburgh to Roslin. The bus took 30 minutes and dropped us in front of the chapel. First, we had a bite to eat in the Original Rosslyn Inn - I highly recommend it. We then walked up to the chapel and toured around. it is an extremely beautful chapel. The carvings... more

I visited the chapel in December with some friends and even though many people were there, it didn't feel crowded at all. I haven't read the Da Vinci code so it was for me only a cute little chapel with great carvings. It is pretty small though. The outside is being restored (because of roof problems) so don't expect the... more

Rosslyn Chapel, c. 1450, is a beautiful example of masonary carvings on the ceiling, pillars and arches. Look for the Angel Playing the Bagpipes, the Mason's Pillar, the window arches with carvings of Indian corn. Guides point all these out and more. It is well worth the trip outside of Edinburgh. more

Rosslyn chapel is a fascinating place, even if you haven't read the daVinci Code. We took a tour from Edinburgh through Rosslyn Tours. It was a minivan tour, not a large coach, so it was very personalized. Straight to the front of the line, too. Our very knowledgeable guide explained the history of the chapel and the significance of each... more
