We hold our hands up…we are kilty of falling in like with Edinburgh!
From the ever-present visual of the castle that looms over the city to the faint sound of bagpipes you can hear on most street corners, we couldn’t help but look around in love and declare aloud to ourselves “thistle do nicely.”
We spent hours wandering about the bustling Royal Mile, down the winding Victoria Street (which famously inspired JK Rowling in creating Diagon Alley), and into the thriving Grassmarket courtyard, where we found a bountiful selection of pubs and cafes. But it was the electric and kind liveliness of the Scottish people that loch-ed in our deep love.
This was our second trip to Scotland together – last second focusing on the gay scene of Inverness and the gorg beauty of the Scottish Highlands. We really fell in cherish with the Scottish capital. Edinburgh is a capital steeped in history and mysticism, with a stunning photo opportunity on every street
