Edinburgh

After London, Edinburgh is Britain's most popular big city with backpackers. Although not everyone who visits London gets the chance to make it to Scotland, virtually everyone who visits Scotland will also visit Edinburgh.

The Scottish capital is a beautiful city with an imposing castle, Holyrood Palace and the majestic Royal Mile that connects the two. Apart from impressive old buildings and centuries of tradition, Edinburgh is a city that knows how to party. The city is home to an endless array of festivals including the Edinburgh Festival and the Festival Fringe, which has grown into the world's largest arts festival plus numerous other arts, entertainment and music festivals. Strong Scottish tradition has fused with Edinburgh’s party culture to turn Edinburgh's Hogmanay from a traditional Scottish celebration to the world’s largest New Year’s Eve party.

The city has plenty of things to do, including great pubs and world-class attractions that make this an unbeatable destination.
