    Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland. It has enormous historical significance. Located on the east coast of Scotland, Edinburgh proudly offers a window to the past. For many people, this city is an exciting mix of something traditional and something modem.

     Edinburgh has been Scotland's royal city since 1437. Most of Edinburgh's sights are within two districts: the old town and the new town. The medieval Royal Mile stretching for over a mile from Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse dominates the city's central area. The Royal Mile is one of the largest, longest and most splendid streets for buildings in Britain.

     To millions of visitors, Edinburgh Castle is a must-see because there are many treasures. Princess Street is in Edinburgh's new town, directly below the castle. Next to Princess Street, in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle, lies the green Princess Street Gardens. This is one of the most delightful gardens in Britain.

     Edinburgh is also a cultural centre. The worldwide famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival (a series of arts festivals held in August) draws thousands and thousands of visitors to the city annually. So Edinburgh is really a place no traveler should ignore.
