The Scottish Parliament has temporarily closed following the death of the Queen yesterday.
All parliamentary business at Holyrood has been suspended and will not resume until after a state funeral has been held in London - with a date to be announced in the coming days.
The streets around the Scottish Parliament have already been closed to traffic in preparation for the Queen's funeral procession.
Alison Johnstone, the parliament's Presiding Officer, said: "The Queen was an extraordinary woman, who led an extraordinary life of service.
"From the day that this Parliament was established in 1999, Her Majesty showed her unwavering support for the institution and the time and importance she gave to that relationship is hugely appreciated.
"The Parliament will have an opportunity to consider a Motion of Condolence and reflect on the life of this much loved and much respected Monarch whose enduring bond with Scotland and the Scottish people will long be remembered."
As the Queen died at Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire, her coffin will be brought first to Edinburgh to lie at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
At a time still to be confirmed, it will then travel up the Canongate and High Street to St Giles's Cathedral for a 24 hour period.
The coffin is then expected top be brought to Waverley station to travel south to London on the Royal Train for burial at Westminster Abbey.
