Edinburgh is a city whose history is written on its face.
The Old Town on its crowded rock, sloping down from the Castle to Holyroodhouse, has not significantly changed its atmosphere since the turbulent fifteenth & sixteenth centuries, when riots, processions, or public executions jammed the High Street.
And the very different era that followed the bloody religious wars of the seventeenth century is epitomized by the elegant streets & squares of the New Town
- the eighteenth-century Enlightenment whose writers, philosophers & lawyers made Edinburgh famous.
