Edinburgh 🍂
Often described as one of the most beautiful cities in the UK, Edinburgh has that rare mix of drama, history and architecture that seems to unfold street by street.
From the dark stone of the Old Town and the colourful curve of Victoria Street to Edinburgh Castle rising above the city, there is history almost everywhere you look.
The Writers’ Museum adds another layer to that story, celebrating three of Scotland’s great literary figures, Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott and Robert Louis Stevenson, inside one of the Old Town’s most atmospheric buildings.
Down in Dean Village, the Water of Leith winds past centuries-old buildings, while Princes Street Gardens sit beneath the castle, transformed from the old Nor Loch into one of the city’s most beautiful green spaces.
Then there is Calton Hill, with its monuments standing high above the rooftops and some of the finest views across Edinburgh.
Dark stone, grand monuments, hidden closes, sweeping viewpoints and the first colours of autumn beginning to appear through the city.
Edinburgh has a way of making almost every corner feel connected to its past.
