The path of kings and queens

You’ll soon discover Edinburgh’s regal legacy when you wander along the Royal Mile. At one end, this iconic thoroughfare leads towards Edinburgh Castle, an imposing fortress that rises out of the sheer cliff of Castle Rock. At the other end, there’s the Scottish Parliament Building and Holyrood Palace.

Enlightening attractions

As one of the centres of the Scottish Enlightenment, Edinburgh has a vast array of museums and galleries. The National Museum of Scotland details Scottish history from ancient times to the present day, while the National Gallery of Scotland houses treasures by Raphael, Monet and Titian.

Gorgeous greenery

For a capital city, it’s surprising just how close Edinburgh is to open green spaces. To enjoy the great outdoors, Holyrood Park is the perfect place to start. It’s also where you’ll find the highest peak in the city, at Arthur’s Seat. The Royal Botanic Garden has a collection of thousands of plant species too.

Top local attractions in Edinburgh

Arthur’s Seat

As the highest peak in Holyrood Park, Arthur’s Seat really stands out. It’s one of the top spots for visitors to the area, and you can gaze down upon the city from the top. It’s one of four hill forts, and comprises bushy greenery and bright yellow gorse plants.

Edinburgh Castle

Uncover rich Scottish history as you explore this regal building. The Great Hall was completed for King James IV back in 1511, and has a marvellous display of vast wooden beams across its roof. You’ll even get to see crown jewels and some old weapons like crossbows and cannons.

Edinburgh Old Town

The oldest part of the city is a mix of buildings from medieval times and the Scottish Reformation. Combined with the New Town, it’s part of Edinburgh’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. Abbeys, palaces and city walls stretch out past the winding streets. Back in the 1990s, some ramshackle areas were renewed.
