EDINBURGH 55.9533° N, 3.1883° W
There is no capital quite like
Edinburgh, with its medieval and
neoclassical beauty set amongst
rocky hills and gracious green
ribbons of park.
Recognised as Scotland's capital since the 15th
century, this city promises to make an unforgettable
impression with its charming character and
fascinating history. With cobbled streets and an
alluring city skyline, the ultimate way to explore is
on foot.
Discover the 18th century New Town, comprised of
delightful neoclassical and Georgian architecture,
it is packed full of designer boutiques, high street
shops, cafes, bars and restuarants. From a high
point, view the dramatic skyline punctuated with
church spires and dominated by Edinburgh Castle
set upon its mighty rock. Meander through the
centre of the bustling city and marvel at the iconic
Royal Mile. Stand in awe before the 17th century
Palace of Holyroodhouse, associated with some
of Scotland's most well known historical figures
including Mary Queen of Scots.
