Let's just get right to it: Edinburgh is gorgeous! The winding streets, the beautiful architecture, the castle rising from the rock standing stately above the town... it's seriously impressive. Oh, and they also have a sandy beach?! Count us in!
We spent three days exploring the city.
We enjoyed wandering the old part of town, visiting several Harry Potter sites, and doing a double decker bus tour. We visited the National Museum (it's free!), and climbed Arthur's Seat. We ate on patios with views of Edinburgh castle and lounged at its base by the Vennel steps. Here are a few of our highlights.
