A beautiful graveyard! The whole scary history is super interesting and it makes a cool and scary atmosphere. The whole graveyard is very clean, beautiful and stunning. All the tomb stones are super pretty. I love the fact that there’s a lot of green, plants there. To be honest I only came there to find the Tom stone where the famous Tom Riddle ( in real Tom Riddell) hidden is, but I found also a lot of other super cool things. Q: I found there a tomb stone of John Watson and has it and connection with the famous “Sherlock Holmes”?

Beautiful cemetery nestled in the heart of Edinburgh, we mainly came to visit after hearing a couple of gravestones that inspired names for the Harry Potter books. It is free to enter, it wasn't crowded during our visit, but there are large areas to roam about.

Never before been to a graveyard that also double ups as a tourist attraction. Went here specifically to find a few of the gravestones that inspired the names in Harry Potter. Good central location and has a map at the front showing where famous people are buried. For the Harry Potter gravestones though, you will need to follow a guide online as these are not listed.
