A Light Adventure In Edinburgh

Take a stroll down the Royal Mile

A lot of shops, and great old buildings. Plus you can always catch a Scotsman playing the bagpipe in a kilt.

A Light Adventure In Edinburgh

Scottish Parliament Building

Really cool architecture. On the way to hike to Arthur's Seat, which is a must!

Hike to Arthur's

Beautiful views during the day (unless it's raining).

Edinburgh Castle

The castle itself is amazing, and during the evening the lighting around it makes it that much more magnificent!

The Elephant House

A must if you are a Harry Potter fan (check out the bathrooms too). Shortbread and vibe make this the perfect spot for afternoon tea.

Greyfriars Kirkyard

Go at night if you want the full on creepy-gothic cemetery vibe. There are some beautiful tombstones, which I suggest seeing in the daytime as well. BONUS: If you are a Harry Potter fan look for Tom Riddle's grave.

Grab a pint and chat with the locals

Go to any bar. I have never met nicer people than the Scots!
