20 Things to do in Edinburgh, Scotland Top Attrions Travel Guide Video Transcript:\r
\r
Our week in Edinburgh was ion packed! We sampled gin and Scotch whisky, wandered down tiny closes, braved the crowds along the Royal Mile, ate our fill of haggis, and even visited a castle, a palace, and an abbey. So, if youre looking for things to do in Edinburgh on your visit, this video guide will show you all of those attrions and then some! \r
\r
Edinburgh Castle is hard to miss as it dominates the citys skyline. The first thing you should know about the Castle is that its not just one single building, so once youre inside theres quite a bit to see and do; you can tour the Royal Palace, see the Crown Jewels, watch the firing of the one oclock gun, step inside St. Margarets Chapel, visit the National War Museum and so much more, so give yourself plenty of time. \r
\r
We also made time to visit the famed Royal Mile, which is the busiest street in Edinburghs Old Town. Theres quite a bit to see along here, so we first popped into the Royal Mile Market, which is set inside a former church, and from there we continued down the street, visiting little souvenir shops along the way. Youll have no trouble finding a kilt here!\r
\r
Another ivity we really enjoyed was taking a food tour with Eat Walk Edinburgh. We got to try a lot of delicious bites and beverages along the way, and one of the highlights was visiting the Fugde House. \r
\r
Another fun way to explore Edinburgh on foot is by wandering down the tiny closes. These small alleys were often named after a memorable occupant, and the Old Town is full of them. \r
\r
And thats it for our visit to Edinburgh, Scotland. We hope you enjoyed following our travels and that this video gave you a few ideas of things to do, foods to try, and places to visit around the city. As always, if you have any other suggestions of things to do in Edinburgh, feel free to share those with fellow travellers in the comments section below. Until next time!\r
