The Camera Obscura is a tall building/fun house in Edinburgh on the Royal Mile located just next to the Castle. It is the oldest attraction in Edinburgh. At the top of the tower there is a mirror which reflects down onto a simple bowl shaped wooden disc. When the lights are dimmed a live image of the city is seen. It is actually really fascinating that something so simple can produce such a complex effect. The 'camera' can see for miles and be zoomed in and out. It really is kinda creepy... because if you are on Princes shopping or in your hotel.... you can be seen. PERFECTLY and IN DETAIL.
BAHHHH shadow wall!
