Edinburgh

As the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh, is jam packed with history and culture. From the ancient castle down to the port of Leith, the old world cityscape will captivate your imagination and bring you back through history.

On the north side of the nearby Scotland/England border, Edinburgh rests on a North Sea inlet and is cloistered by lifeless volcanoes.

A city alive with festivals, there is always plenty to keep you busy. History is at every footstep, from the moment you set eyes on the impressive castle battlements set high on majestic cliffs to the old world charm of its cathedrals, like Saint Giles' and Ste. Mary's. Stroll at your leisure and drink in the magnificent architecture.

Shop along Princes Street and take in the history that awaits you at every step. Everywhere you turn there is a great photo opportunity, so don't forget your camera. You can even take the time to step inside and see the workings of a distillery at Glenkinchie.

This city is filled with legends and stories from the amusing tale of a dog who never wanted to leave the churchyard grave of his master, to the darker, more sinister account of Mary, Queen of Scots who witnessed her lover being killed by her enraged husband in Holyrood House.

Colorful and exciting year round, Edinburgh has a particular spark in the summer months. The Book Festival, Jazz Festival and the Fringe Festival are only a few of the many festivals that keep the city buzzing.
