Tourist most wanted places to visit in Edinburgh

Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland and home to huge swathes of Scottish history. For a capital city, Edinburgh is a surprisingly green place and, even in the heart, you are never far from wide open spaces where you can take in amazing views, or just relax and enjoy the great outdoors on crisp winter days. Here dark performance has been done and the foreboding, brooding crags of Arthur’s Seat and the castle look down as a warning to those that visit. Elsewhere in the city, the history gives way to commerce with many shops and restaurants serving up the best of Scotland to the millions of visitors each year. August and September see the arrival of the world famous Edinburgh Festival which fills the city with entertainers and those wishing to be entertained.

Discover on the city:
See the world twisted upside down at the city's first tourist attraction, the Camera, which was thrilling sufficient for Victorian guests, although the CCTV age group may be more impressed by the compilation of powerful telescopes on the roof.

Get a mouthful air of fresh art:
Green up a gallery journey by combining a visit to Scotland's modern art album with a healthy riverside walk. The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, its grounds dotted with sculptures by the likes of Henry Moore and Edinburgh's own Sir Eduardo Paolozzi, is completely located along the Water of Leith Walkway. The walk follows the stream that rises in the Pent land Hills and pours into the Firth of Forth at Leith.

Arthur’s Seat Edinburgh:
The tip of an antique extinct volcano, Arthur’s seat is a imposing feature found in Holy rood Park, a mile from the city centre. There are wonderful views from the summit over the city and the pointer is picture perfect in the beam of the setting sun. Long linked with King Arthur. It’s more probable a dishonesty of Archer’s Seat as it was a brilliant planned stranglehold for archers.

Edinburgh fair: 
1st taking place in 1947 this is the major civilizing fair in the world and takes place in venues and the streets across Edinburgh in August each year. Lots of well known acts show but it is also a showcase for new ability and many of the world’s great drama and comedic talents have been discovered there. Several actions are free to attend and for the period of the fair, the city is crowded with hotel rooms selling out fast. For a overjoyed end to a visit to Edinburgh you’ll not match the lively strength of the festival.
