Royal Mile
Walking down our very own High Street at the heart of the city could well be the definitive tourist experience. Edinburgh's Royal Mile is a major visitor attraction and is home to a wide variety of shops, restaurants, pubs and clubs and tours.
A fantastic shopping spot for tourists looking to buy upmarket goods such as Scottish made knitwear, antiques and tartan products, the Royal Mile is also ideal for those looking for souvenirs from their trip and many a store sells our famous home made shortbread.
Places to eat include The Witchery, a world famous restaurant, as well as a delightful range of Scottish eateries, burger bars and restaurants.
Other areas of interest include the Whisky Heritage Centre, St. Giles Cathedral, The Museum of Childhood, Holyrood Abbey and the Scottish Parliament.
