Edinburgh, Scotland's
inspiring capital, is a city of contrasts - where the lofty
tenements and winding closes of Old Town make way to the
grace and elegance of the Georgian New Town. With Edinburgh
Castle dominating the skyline, this UNESCO World Heritage
site offers the perfect balance of all things traditional
and contemporary. Discover world-class museums and galleries,
take a walking tour on an open-top bus or even visit the
city's own zoo. From the world famous festivals to top-class
restaurants and bars, not to mention fabulous shopping, you'll
be spoilt for choice.
In stark contrast to the bustling city, the Lothians offer peaceful tranquillity,
the perfect place to relax and unwind. With stunning beaches, idyllic countryside
and arguably the sunniest and driest weather in Scotland, you’ll
find historic houses, castles and churches to explore, not to mention outdoor
action and superb family visitor attractions.
Edinburgh is serviced by a top-class bus service, Lothian Buses and the
city is actively encouraging both locals and visitors to ditch their cars
in favour of a bus, in a bid to go green. Edinburgh Council also runs The
Waste Aware Edinburgh campaign, aiming to change public attitudes and behaviour
towards waste, persuading the people of Edinburgh to Reduce, Reuse and
Recycle. The Green Business Tourism Scheme has also been developed to encourage
local businesses to reduce their negative environmental impact.
