Princes Street Gardens is to Edinburgh what Central Park is to New York... A pair of lungs within the city centre, a place of relaxation and always... that view! - of the castle towering overhead. Unique and unforgettable. Great children's playpark at the west end of the gardens!

Within a 200 metre "strip", Lothian Road hosts The Usher Hall, (Edinburgh's premier symphonic concert hall), The Lyceum and Traverse Theatres and The Filmhouse, Edinburgh's premiere art-cinema. And less than 5 minutes walk away from these venues there is the King's Theatre, a backbone of the Edinburgh International Festival and the Cameo Cinema, another hugely popular art-house cinema.

The Jazz Bar is an A-list music venue (it is featured in Downbeat magazines list of top jazz clubs in the world!), featuring the very best of jazz and acoustic music.

One of the first planned city designs, Edinburgh's New Town features some of the most beautiful architecture of the city. The location of so much of the discourse and discovery of the Scottish Enlightenment, The New Town is an architectural delight, fully deserving its status as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wander round the streets and be amazed.
