Edinburg, the ancient and historic capital of Scotland, is full of splendid buildings, cloisters, churches and bridges and dominated by the majestic Castle that towers up from the rock as if from the bowels of the earth. The city contains a large number of architecturally interesting elements: its buildings, dating from Mediaeval, feudal, Georgian and Victorian times, cluster one above the other and make this city and its buildings one of the most important historical sites in Great Britain, equal, if not superior, to London.
The web site contains a detailed description of the Castle and its hill, the streets, the city gates, the bridges and all the other places of notable architectural and historic interest in the city.
