Edinburgh is known as Athens of the North
Edinburgh is an ancient city. It is very cold but attractive, very proud but friendly and has a great past
If you walk around Edinburgh you can touch on history at every step. Practically every building has a tale to tell
The two most interesting parts of the city are the Old Town and the New Town
The Old Town lies between the Castle and Holyrood Palace.
The Castle, in fact, is older than the city. No one can say exactly when the first settlers came to live on the huge rock that stands high above Edinburgh
Later they built here a castle that used to be a fortress and a royal palace
It looks good in any weather but at night when it is floodlit it looks just like a castle in a fairy tale
The Edinburgh military tattoo takes place every August and September and is known throughout the world
A line of streets, which runs from the Castle to Holyrood House is called the Royal Mile
Holyrood House is a big royal palace which is the residence of the Queen when she is in Edinburgh
The most picturesque part of the Royal Mile is the Cannongate, which gives a good idea of what the Old Town was like
The monument to a dog called Bobby The monument to a dog is one of the most modest and yet one of the best known monuments in Edinburgh.The dog belonged to John Grey. When he died Bobby lived near his grave for twenty-six years.Later Bobby was buried near his master and the statue in the Old Town has become a symbol of devotion.
The Old Town is a striking contrast to the New Town with its white and beautiful streets lined with trees. Princes Street is the most beautiful street of the New Town. It has a lot of gardens on one side and it is also Edinburgh’s popular shopping centre
Princes Street is connected with the name of the famous writer Sir Walter Scott. A monument 200 feet high rises between green trees. They call it a poem of stone.It is the Scott Monument. Inside it there is a marble statue of writer, and of his favourite dog
