What is the name of the building where the Scottish Parliament meets?

Where a parliament meets is its home, and Scotland’s home for its legislature is in Holyrood, Edinburgh—the purpose-built Scottish Parliament Building located in the Holyrood area. People often simply refer to this as Holyrood. The other options are different parliaments’ homes: Westminster is the UK Parliament in London, Stormont is the Northern Ireland Assembly in Belfast, and the Senedd is the Welsh Parliament in Cardiff. So the building you’re looking for is Holyrood.
