Edinburgh may be my hometown, but it’s also one of my favourite cities in the world. It is an intriguing city to stroll around. Behind every building, around every corner and along every alley is another story told. Layered with history, romance, culture, and boasting some of the world’s finest architecture, cuisine and castles; both its old and new towns are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and once you throw in some of urban Europe’s best scenery it’s easy to understand why this beautiful city tops so many polls. I love the free museums, castles, Georgian townhouses, festival atmosphere and of course the whisky trails. During the summer festivals, the city welcomes over 4million tourists with the Fringe Festival attracting over 500,000 tourists alone.
Offering a good antidote to the overwhelming August crowds, I captured this photo from the West End of Princes Street Gardens after walking back to the city from the Botanic Gardens.

From Fife to Miami!? That's bold! I absolutely agree with you though. There's nowhere like Scotland :)

No worries ~~ It does seem like a bold move and I’ve had many many moments thinking ‘how did I get way out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean?!’.... my explorer heart is full.. now I’m dreaming of the cold stone feeling of ancient buildings like Edinburgh castle 😄
