Edinburgh, Scotland, an international trading center since its foundation in the 12th century, combines the amenities of a cosmopolitan city with a rich and colorful history. The city isn't just bagpipes, whiskey and plaids; although visitors can always indulge at any of the many colorful local pubs. Architectural highlights range from the medieval Gothic of St. Giles Cathedral and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, to the sweeping pale yellow Georgian terraces of New Town, and the eclectic modernism of the New Scottish Parliament. You’ll find plenty of hotels located near the city center, meaning you are close to many of the area’s top attractions.
Edinburgh Airport (EDI) serves the city, and rail links to major cities throughout the United Kingdom. Lothian buses are the preferred method of transport throughout Edinburgh. You can head up to Arthur's Seat; an 823-foot high extinct volcano, for a panoramic view, or to the Royal Mile for historic buildings and luxury shopping.
Located on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, Edinburgh has a marine climate, with an average of 15 rainy days a month, and average high temperatures ranging from approximately 40 degrees in the winter, to 60 degrees in the summer. The August Edinburgh Fringe Festival is a cornucopia of several thousand theatrical performances. Edinburgh also celebrates three uniquely Scottish holidays; St. Andrew's Day in November, Hogmanay in December, and Burns Night, which honors poet Robert Burns, every January.
