i'm going to Edinburgh in a couple of weeks and i will be spending almost the whole month there.
i'm wondering if there is anyone from there on this forum, or anyone who at least has been, so you can maybe tell me some cool places to visit Smile

Well for kinda "touristy" places you can go the Royal Mile in the centre of town, which'll be full of street performers since the festival will be on. There's also Princes Street Gardens which is really nice when its sunny, and Arthur's Seat which is an extinct volcanoe that you can walk to the top of for good views.

And the Castle, which is pretty cool. Some great views from there as well.

If you're looking for touristy things to do at night they have ghost walks and stuff, which even if you're not into that sort of thing, they are still pretty cool.

Depends what you're looking to do really

like i already told Better Sense, i guess i can find touristy things doing a quick google search. what i'm looking for is maybe some local places, like bars or venues or local records shops, things like that Wink those ghost walks sounds cool though, i'll check them out Very Happy
