#edinburghtrips Edinburgh is in the Lowlands of Scotland and sits on the east coast. It’s only about 50 miles north of the border with England. Edinburgh is not the largest city — that distinction belongs to Glasgow. But it is the capital and is often the point of entry for folks flying into Scotland. So let’s dive into the best things to do in Edinburgh. • One of the star attractions, along with the next item on this list, is the Edinburgh Castle. There are lots of great buildings scattered about with museums. I really enjoyed the National War Museum and the Scottish National War Memorial. But you’ll also find the Scottish crowned jewels at Edinburgh Castle as well as the Royal Palace and St Margaret’s Chapel. Tip: It does get very very busy here so do reserve your ticket in advance and try to go first thing in the morning. The one o’clock gun firing is cool but it’s very very busy at that time. So avoid that early afternoon time! • Another of the star attractions in Edinburgh is the Royal Mile. This is the road that leads from the Castle (the fortress) down to Holyrood Palace which is the newer ‘castle’. • Along the Royal Mile you’ll find the stunning St Giles Cathedral. A visit to this religious building is definitely one of the best things to do in Edinburgh. Now you may have heard of this with the recent passing of Queen Elizabeth II as her remains did lie in state here. • The Grassmarket area is one of my favorite parts of Edinburgh. This area was where agricultural trading took place back in the 14th and 15th centuries. Tip: For Harry Potter fans do pop into the Museum Context shop. It’s a kick with all kinds of Harry Potter souvenirs. You can even get your own wand!!
