For a glimpse into the lives of the local people of Edinburgh dating back to the 18th century, The People’s Museum on the Royal Mile is a great find. The exhibits in the museum focus on ordinary people and what they did for work, leisure as well as their political and religious struggles. The staff is very enthusiastic and eager to answer any questions. Free admission.

    The People's Story Museum presents Edinburgh's history through the Scotsman's perspective, with statues in daily life such as cooking, reading paper, shopping, etc. The museum is not a proof of the "gone glory years", but of Edinburgh's social history and the people's history since the 18th century. The insights of the harsh poverty experienced.

    The People's Story Museum lets visitors learn that the history of ordinary workers' daily lives has not been prominent in royal history over the past centuries. The biography of the people on display, as well as the oil paintings of the workers, is vivid, and there is a small screening hall.

    The People's Story Museum in Edinburgh's Old Town Hall on Royal Mile Road has a three-story exhibition hall that introduces the work, learning and life of the Scottish people, very close to reality. The life-size sculptures of ordinary employees from all walks of life show respect for employees from all walks of life. Free visit to the museum.

    It used to be a council hall, a fire station and a warehouse, and now it looks more like a wax museum. The dark days of the old town's narrow alleys, the Victorian urban transformation, the post-war economic recession, and the current revitalization of tourism culture... One small scene introduced how Edinburgh has developed to this day at the civil society level.

    Ticket prices are very cheap. Worth watching. After a long queue, it was comparable to the National Expo, and I came out to this museum late in the morning.
