Hold down the left mouse button and drag on the image to move around the picture. You can also use the cursor (arrow) keys. Use the 'A' key to zoom in, and the 'Z' key to zoom out. The photo may take some time to load and this tour requires Java to be enabled. If you can't see the moving image view the non-Java photo tour.

About the image: A visit to the Parliament begins in the main hall, where staff at the information desk can help you to book tickets for the chamber or committees, or a place on one of our guided tours. The area houses the permanent exhibition about the Parliament, as well as a cafe, crèche and shop.

The vaulted ceiling features architect Enric Miralles' abstract designs of the saltire cross. Next you can view the stairs leading to the chamber's public gallery.

If you're planning a visit to Holyrood in person, information including guided tour details and opening times is available in our Visitor section.
