A #vacation to #Edinburgh lets you rub shoulders with history. Its Old Town and Royal Mile are filled with the ghosts of medieval merchants and poets, while its New Town shines with the glories of the Scottish Enlightenment.
To see Edinburgh in all her glory, climb to Arthur’s Seat, the highest of the city’s seven peaks. #Visit Edinburgh Castle, the symbol of Scotland. Over the last eleven centuries, this castle has been laid siege to 26 times but still it stands, a testimony to the indomitable spirit of the Scots.
Explore centuries of innovation at the Scottish Museum, or head to South Queensferry to see the Forth Bridge, an engineering marvel when it opened in 1890. The Royal Botanic Gardens is one of the world’s oldest and most important centers of botanical science, yet it’s still a place which invites one to slow down.
For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

Edinburgh, Scotland - Travel Around The World | Top best places to visit in Edinburgh
Top best places to visit in Edinburgh, Scotland
Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland, lies in the northern part of the United Kingdom.
Home to the Scottish Parliament and Scotland seat of the monarchy, Edinburgh holds the nickname “Athens of the North”, due to its many neoclassical buildings and its reputation for learning.
One of the best attractions in the city is a magnificent royal fortress, located on one of the highest points of the city, Edinburgh Castle.
The castle has continuously been in use for a 1000 years and despite its many concerts on the castle esplanade it is in excellent condition.
Running downhill, between Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, the Royal Mile is the busiest tourist street in the Old Town with its many shops, restaurants, pubs and visitor attractions.
Along this street, on Parliament Square, stands the principal place of worship, St Giles’ Cathedral.
Around the cathedral are historic buildings such as Mary King’s Close, the City Chambers, the Old Parliament House and the Supreme Courts.
In the Old Town are also the National Library of Scotland and, a little bit further, the National Museum of Scotland.
This district has many colorful, lively and unique streets that are worth a walk, like Victoria Street
or the Grassmarket Area.
On the other side of the Royal Mile is the New Town, home to the Scottish National Gallery,
And next to it, the Royal Scottish Academy.
Further along is the Scott Monument, a huge intricate Gothic monument dedicated to Sir Walter Scott.
It is possible to climb 200 ft above the city center to enjoy its fantastic views.
Another good place to see the city from high up is Calton Hill.
Besides great views there are also various landmarks including the City Observatory, the Nelson Monument and the National Monument of Scotland.
On the steep slope of the hill is the headquarters of the Scottish Government and the New Parliament Building.
Nearby, at the end of the Royal Mile, is the Palace of Holyroodhouse, a royal residence and the Queen’s Gallery.
From there you can climb to Holyrood Park and enjoy nature... and the city.

20 Things to do in Edinburgh, Scotland Top Attractions Travel Guide Video Transcript:
Our week in Edinburgh was action packed! We sampled gin and Scotch whisky, wandered down tiny closes, braved the crowds along the Royal Mile, ate our fill of haggis, and even visited a castle, a palace, and an abbey. So, if you’re looking for things to do in Edinburgh on your visit, this video guide will show you all of those attractions and then some!
Edinburgh Castle is hard to miss as it dominates the city’s skyline. The first thing you should know about the Castle is that it’s not just one single building, so once you’re inside there’s quite a bit to see and do; you can tour the Royal Palace, see the Crown Jewels, watch the firing of the one o’clock gun, step inside St. Margaret’s Chapel, visit the National War Museum and so much more, so give yourself plenty of time.
We also made time to visit the famed Royal Mile, which is the busiest street in Edinburgh’s Old Town. There’s quite a bit to see along here, so we first popped into the Royal Mile Market, which is set inside a former church, and from there we continued down the street, visiting little souvenir shops along the way. You’ll have no trouble finding a kilt here!
Another activity we really enjoyed was taking a food tour with Eat Walk Edinburgh. We got to try a lot of delicious bites and beverages along the way, and one of the highlights was visiting the Fugde House.
Another fun way to explore Edinburgh on foot is by wandering down the tiny closes. These small alleys were often named after a memorable occupant, and the Old Town is full of them.
And that’s it for our visit to Edinburgh, Scotland. We hope you enjoyed following our travels and that this video gave you a few ideas of things to do, foods to try, and places to visit around the city. As always, if you have any other suggestions of things to do in Edinburgh, feel free to share those with fellow travellers in the comments section below. Until next time!
This is part of our Travel in Scotland video series showcasing Scottish food, Scottish culture and Scottish cuisine.
