About Édimbourg
Édimbourg, capitale écossaise sur des collines volcaniques : château sur son rocher, Vieille Ville médiévale et élégante Ville Nouvelle géorgienne.
Le château d'Édimbourg couronne Castle Rock et conserve les Honneurs d'Écosse, les joyaux de la couronne écossaise. De là, le Royal Mile descend à travers la Vieille Ville, devant la cathédrale Saint-Gilles et un dédale de closes étroits, jusqu'au palais de Holyroodhouse et au Parlement écossais. Arthur's Seat, ancien volcan, s'élève au-dessus du palais avec de vastes vues.
