The Neighborhood:
Edinburgh's New Town is not that new. Built in the mid-to-late 18th Century, it is a marvel of urban planning.
Edinburgh’s New Town is the artistic centre of the capital, with all three national art galleries in immediate proximity to each other, including the Scottish National Gallery on the Mound and Scottish Gallery of Modern Art to the north-west, near Stockbridge. For many visitors, the National Portrait Gallery proves the most exciting draw of this coterie.
This imposing Gothic needle looms over Princes Street Gardens as Scotland’s national monument to one of its most famous sons, Sir Walter Scott. This may not be a climb for the faint of heart, but those who do brave it will be rewarded with some of the most sweeping views you can get of the city.
The Edinburgh Playhouse welcomes a majority of the national touring musicals that come up North. It also hosts a regular season of youth musical theatre, acapella revues, and big name stand-up comedians. However, superstitious concert-goers may be given pause by tales of the alleged resident ghost, Albert, who is said to haunt the sixth level and can be sensed as a sudden chill in the air.
Princes and George Streets are Edinburgh’s best place for retail therapy. Aside from the usual high street suspects, make sure you pop in to the landmark Jenners department store, or simply stroll by to admire its grand Victorian facade from the street. The Princes Street Gardens have been transformed into a picturesque setting for picnics and family excursions.
