Edinburgh, in addition to being the capital of Scotland since 1437, is one of the most visited cities in the United Kingdom and holds the title of Scotland's second-largest city (the first is Glasgow). Its beauty and historical legacy make it an excellent destination to visit throughout the year.

This beautiful Scottish city, full of history and curiosities, will allow us to take a trip to the Middle Ages, thanks to its interesting streets with architectural value, the many buildings dating from this historical period, and impressive monuments from the 16th century.
