Edinburgh | Great Britain
Fly daily to Edinburgh with Loganair.
Scotland's capital really is a showstopper when it comes to picture-perfect corners.
Edinburgh Castle is a must, of course, even just for the views across the city from the ramparts. This world-famous castle dominates the skyline and houses the Honours (Crown Jewels) of Scotland, the Stone of Destiny, the famous 15th-century gun Mons Meg, the One O' Clock Gun and the National War Museum of Scotland. The oldest part of the castle, St Margaret's Chapel, dates from the 12th century.
For a different viewpoint, head up Calton Hill. From here you can see landmarks including Arthur's Seat with the Crags behind Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament, Leith and the Firth of Forth, Princes Street in its New Town grid, and the Royal Mile climbing up towards the castle. The striking National Monument, inspired by the Parthenon in Athens and intended to commemorate the Scottish servicemen who died in the Napoleonic Wars, was never completed leaving just the 12 columns you see today.
One of Scotland's newest and most exciting visitor attractions, Johnnie Walker Princes Street is an eight-floor visitor experience celebrating the world's best-selling Scotch whisky. Featuring two rooftop bars and a terrace with breath-taking views of the Edinburgh skyline, including the Explorers' Bothy whisky bar stocked with 150 different whiskies, this is a "must visit" for the whisky aficionado.
