Edinburgh Overview
Edinburgh is Scotland's compact, hilly capital. It has a medieval
Old Town and elegant Georgian New Town with gardens and neoclassical
buildings. Looming over the city is Edinburgh Castle, home to Scotland’s
crown jewels and the Stone of Destiny, used in the coronation of
Scottish rulers. Arthur’s Seat is an imposing peak in Holyrood Park with
sweeping views, and Calton Hill is topped with monuments and memorials.
