Sightseeing

This is a ruined castle just on the outskirts of the city centre. It is a great place to escape the hubbub of the city, especially at festival time. Superb for a game of hide & seek with the kids!

Parks & Nature

Visiting the Botanical Garden is a very relaxing day out. There is a lot to see here, including an art gallery in Inverleith House. If it's a rainy day, visit the hothouses to see the tropical plants.
