Information about the city of Edinburgh in Scotland
Edinburgh, said the writer Robert Louis Stevenson, is what Paris ought to be. Its magnificent architecture shifts from the lofty buildings of its medieval Old Town, as they tumble down the spine of the Royal Mile, to the grace of the Georgian New Town. Above it all, in its towering splendour, stands the Castle.
Every step is a revelation - an alleyway which reveals an ancient courtyard, or a wynd which opens up a new panorama. And yet within this sweeping elegance is a compact city, a bustling city, above all a city which rewards every visitor.
Large gardens and greenery are prevalent features of central Edinburgh, where the council is one of the most stridently conservationist in Europe. Conspicuous from Princes Street is Arthur's Seat, a mountain of bright green and yellow furze rearing up behind the spires of the Old Town. This child-size (800-ft) mountain has steep slopes and little crags, like a miniature Highlands set down in the middle of the busy city.
Nearly everywhere in Edinburgh (the burgh is always pronounced burra in Scots) there are spectacular buildings, whose Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian pillars add neoclassical grandeur to the surroundings. The most notable examples are perched amid the greenery of Calton Hill, which overlooks the city center from the east.
Around Edinburgh there's enough choice to satisfy every taste. The city has everything you'd expect of a great capital with world-class facilities providing for almost every kind of activity. And the choice is fantastic in the countryside where you can find everything from off-road racing to clay pigeon shooting, or if you like a more peaceful life you can enjoy the beautiful Pentland Hills.
