"The most shining Jewel of Scotland" Edinburgh by shivan
Edinburgh Travel Guide: 4,089 reviews and 6,143 photos
I discovered today that I never made a page dedicated to Edinburgh. It's such a shame!
I searched a lot in my PCs for pictures decent enough to be "published" here. I founds some and so now I have a better reason to build this.
Edinburgh is not the Scotland capital, that is Glasgow, but definitely it is the most beautiful town in Scotland and among the three most beautiful in United Kingdom, together with, in my opinion, York and London. I can think of a few places that deserve a page in VT more than Edinburgh.
This pics come from an old travel made there, about 1986, I made a couple more later but I have no pics so I say you sorry since now for the quality of the pics.
- Pros:The most beautiful spot in Scotland
- Cons:A "bit" expensive, actually
- In a nutshell:You simply cannot miss it

Edinburgh is the Capital city of Scotland.
Great pic of the Castle!!! Safe travels...
Nice historic page on Edinburgh Every visitor should visit the castle
I really should make the effort and visit Scotland, so near, yet so far away.
mo... ho completato... o forse sono a -2??? calcisticamente parlando.. :-))
Very nice page, Nikola. I like it.
I love that page, Nicola: nice destination, good pics, great description and my kind of size!!! ;-))
anch'io la trovo una città bellissima e vorrei ritornarci, ci sono stata TROPPO tempo fa...
Awesome page!
Small but great page Nicola! This page makes me long so much to go back to beautiful Edinburgh. I've been here once to join in with the millennium celebrations. I had a fantastic time, but unfortunately didn't see much of the city itself.
