It was meant to be based on the Parthenon in Athens and the first stone was laid in 1822 but the funding didn’t pull
国家纪念碑的点评
点评：This monument was originally initiated as a memorial to those Scottish soldiers that died during the Napoleonic Wars in 1816. It was meant to be based on the Parthenon in Athens and the first stone was laid in 1822 but the funding didn’t pull through and it was left unfinished in 1829.
Only half completed due to lack of funds, it has stood as it is, with its 12 Doric columns rising up from its base, for almost 200 years. Ever since then and even today, proposals have been discussed for finishing the monument but they don’t take off.
It’s still an iconic landmark on top of Calton Hill Edinburgh and people mostly just climb on top for a few photos. (I did not try thiugh)
Some more notable monuments you can find around here are the Dugald Stewart Monument which is dedicated to the famous philosopher and was built by William Henry Playfair.

翻译：这座纪念碑最初是为了纪念1816年拿破仑战争中阵亡的苏格兰士兵而建。它原本计划仿照雅典帕特农神庙建造，奠基石于1822年铺设，但由于资金不足，工程于1829年被迫中止。
由于资金短缺，这座纪念碑只完成了一半，如今它依然屹立在那里，12根多立克柱从基座拔地而起，已近200年之久。自那时起，直至今日，人们一直在讨论完成这座纪念碑的方案，但始终未能付诸实施。
它仍然是爱丁堡卡尔顿山顶的标志性建筑，人们大多只是爬上去拍几张照片。（我可没尝试过。）
附近还有一些其他值得一提的纪念碑，例如杜格尔德·斯图尔特纪念碑，这座纪念碑是为了纪念这位著名哲学家而建，由威廉·亨利·普莱费尔建造。
