Perfect for a year round city break, Edinburgh is one of Europe's most beautiful cities. From the spectacular castle, through the rambling wynds and closes of the Old Town to the Georgian splendour of the New Town, it is a joy to explore. Add to this the galleries, theatres and museums, the great night-life, the restaurants of every type and budget and shops from department stores to boutiques - high end to kitsch - and you can see why Edinburgh is such a popular destination.
