Dozens of firefighters have spent the night bringing a large gorse fire on Arthur's Seat under control.
Around 800 square metres of land in Holyrood Park was ablaze, just below the Salisbury Crags on Tuesday night.
The flames were visible across Edinburgh on Tuesday night and into the early hours of Wednesday.
Two fire engines initially went to the scene after the alarm was raised at around 6.30pm on Tuesday, before later being joined by another two along with an all-terrain vehicle from Dunblane.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) left the scene at around 2.45am.
Dozens of bystanders went to watch the scenes unfold through Tuesday evening, with many taking to social media to share images of the fire.
Police said Queen's Drive was closed between Dynamic Earth and the Commonwealth Pool while emergency services dealt with the incident.
The SFRS also said they had received 197 calls about the fire by 8.30pm.
There were no reports of any injuries.
