Edinburgh - Capital of Scotland And #1 for city breaks in Scotland
A truly international city so exciting and diverse that it is impossible to sum it up in a few sentences!
The city of Edinburgh is often voted by its residents as ‘ the best place to live in Britain'. Dramatic contours, long surviving buildings, breathtaking views, green hills, wide water, sensational nightlife and a manageable sized city centre have encouraged a truly cosmopolitan population that has produced a diverse cultural identity. The city is a thrilling place!
Culminating in August's festival it offers year-round, sophisticated entertainment in hundreds of small performance venues. Edinburgh castle, King Arthur's seat and a labyrinth of tunnels and dungeons provide similar excitement for history buffs whilst those simply looking for a place to shop in fine style will not be disappointed either. There is a constant, inexplicable air of romance within this ancient city that entices visitors to return to this beautiful place time and again.
Edinburgh’s massive worldwide appeal and popularity naturally means that those seeking short breaks or hotel accommodation in Edinburgh will often find it scarce and expensive.
Edinburgh Castle is visited annually by approximately one million people - if we except the Tower of London that is more people than visit any other ancient monument in the United Kingdom.
People getting to visit Edinburgh- particularly those on a restricted itinerary - should visit Edinburgh Castle, not only because of the historical interest of this remarkable fortress and former royal residence, but because it offers such splendid panoramic views of the city. It is from these battlements, for example, that the traveller immediately appreciates the dramatic topography of Edinburgh, situated between sea and hills.
