    Wow, you did an excellent job with this. It is unfortunate that you didn't have time to explore the residential areas of the New Town and go down the hill to Dean Village, Stockbridge, the Royal Botanic Gardens etc., as that is a very different world fro the Old Town.
    Also, while there are three hills in the immediate city centre - Castlerock, Calton Hill, Holyrood Park (which includes Arthur's Seat) - there are actually seven hills in the city.
    I too love Edinburgh (lived there, now visit most years - it is home in my heart) and am always delighted when visitors also love it. But I wish I were there to show them around, as there is much more than just the Royal Mile, Princes Street Gardens, and the commercial streets of the New Town.
    Thank you for doing such a great job. You did your homework. Nice editing, too.

      Yes, Edinburgh is amazing and yes, it’s a potty that I wasn’t able to see more of it. I had to choose between seeing more of Edinburgh or more of Scotland and I chose to see more of Scotland. I do not regret that because this trip was absolutely beautiful and impressive! And I do now have a lot of reasons to come back which I will for sure! 🤩

    Reasons why Edinburgh is Europes best city, 1, you can WALK everywhere, and the UK;s best bus service means you can travel across the city easily, and cheaply, 2, There are more Food Outlets per square mile than anyplace on earth, almost every street has a pub, cafe, or restuarant, 3, Edinburghs parks are FAMOUS, and intrinsic to the way of LIFE for natives, LEITH LINKS, THE MEADOWS, PRINCESS STREET GARDENS, and the iconic HOLYROOD PARK featuring ARTHURS SEAT are all LOVED dearly by the people who live and visit the city, 4 THE NATIVES, you wont get a more friendly greeting, and we are very open to helping people, and lastly, 5, WORLD HERITAGE CITY, with over 40,000 buildings, statues and other sites LISTED, Edinburgh is a UNESCO protected city, from its medieval OLD TOWN, to its NEO CLASSICAL GEORGIAN NEW TOWN, the city is just breathtaking, and its WORLD FAMOUS FESTIVAL means the city is alive with energy like no other place on the planet.

    The “New” Town (built late 18th/early 19th c) is remarkable in its own right - it is one of the world’s two top sites (the other is Bath, in England) for Neoclassical (“Georgian”) architecture. Edinburgh is a UNESCO world heritage site for the precise reason that it is unique in the world in offering, in a very small area, two utterly different but very well preserved city plans and architectural styles - Medieval and Neoclassical, side by side.
    Prince’s Street gardens was originally a lake (“The Nor’ Loch”) and the road leading up to the old town from the new town (“The Mound”) didn’t exist before the New Town was built. Both were created by dumping the spoil from digging out the foundations of the New Town.

    Edinburgh is bilt on 7 hills and theyare big, if you go to the Tron you go under the old town and many bridges. People used to work and live in the dark place, there are ment to be gohsts, St Marys Close is a street under the old town it had been blocked off when built on.
    Water in Scotland is called Council Juice becase water is free, we have the rain to do this.

    • @aventuralina

      I really love that the water was free! I only know very few places where it’s like that but there should be more countries offering quality drinking water for free.
