It’s no surprise – this city feels like a spell in itself. Majestic castles and grand cathedrals provide breathtaking views over the Scottish capital, while the atmosphere of the Old Town seems steeped in enchantment. Adding to the charm is a rich pub culture: one legendary tavern follows the next, each with its own story to tell. The flight to Edinburgh is worth it for the world-renowned Scotch ale alone.
