About Edinburgh
Edinburgh, Skottlands huvudstad, reser sig på vulkaniska kullar, med ett slott på en klippa, en medeltida stadskärna och en elegant georgiansk New Town.
Edinburgh Castle kröner Castle Rock och förvarar Honours of Scotland, de skotska kronjuvelerna. Därifrån löper Royal Mile nedför Gamla stan, förbi St Giles' Cathedral och ett virrvarr av smala closes, till Holyroodhouse-palatset och det skotska parlamentet. Arthur's Seat, en urgammal vulkan, reser sig ovanför palatset med vida vyer.
