Scottish Parliament photo tour: The debating chamber
This photo tour is also available with panoramic photographs, which require Java to be enabled. If you're planning a visit in person, you can find lots of information, including guided tour details, in our Visitor section.
Finished in oak, sycamore and glass, the chamber contains 131 seats and desks in a semi-circular layout, as well as the Presiding Officer's desk behind the mace.
This photo was taken from the upper level gallery, which has seating for
227 members of the public, 16 invited guests and 37 members of the media.
Parliament usually meets on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Continue the tour into the committee rooms.
