Places of Interest Edinburgh Castle Old Town
As one of the most famous landmarks in Edinburgh, the Castle sits elegantly above the city. A visit to Edinburgh is truly not complete until you have walked round the site which dates from the 12th Century. As you explore, you can see the hourly changing of the guard and marvel at St Margaret's Chapel, the oldest building in Edinburgh, however do not be startled by the one o' clock gun salute, which happens on most weekdays. Places of Interest Mary Kings Close 2 Warriston's Close, Royal Mile, Old Town 0870 243 0160
If you are interested in Ghosts, monsters and legends then a trip down Mary Kings close is for you, however this experience is not just for ‘ghostbusters’, it also offers a great insight into the history of Edinburgh and how people lived in days gone by. Edinburgh’s Royal Mile used to boast as many floors underground as there are above and some pretty grim things went on so with much historical value and the spookiest atmosphere it is recommended not to go alone……!

Prepare to enter the best ever dressing up box when you walk into this classic Edinburgh shop. It may smell a bit musty but it's the only place to go if you need a dressing up outfit or indeed a dinner jacket or a kilt. If you go with friends you are sure to have a laugh in the dressing rooms.
