Edinburgh, Scotland's compact and hilly capital, boasts a medieval Old Town and an elegant Georgian New Town adorned with gardens and neoclassical buildings. Dominating the city's skyline is Edinburgh Castle, the storied home of Scotland's crown jewels and the Stone of Destiny, instrumental in the coronation of Scottish monarchs. Arthur’s Seat offers an imposing peak within Holyrood Park that provides expansive views, while Calton Hill is crowned with an array of monuments and memorials.
