Edinburgh
The Meadows & Grassmarket
Where Edinburgh actually lives.
The Meadows is a wide, tree-lined park just south of the Old Town, criss-crossed by paths and busy with runners, picnics and games of football on summer evenings. Around it are tall Victorian tenements, independent cafés and the University of Edinburgh's central campus.
Downhill, the Grassmarket is an old market square in the shadow of the Castle rock, lined with pubs and places to eat. It feels like a neighbourhood rather than a tourist route, but the city centre and the Royal Mile are still a short walk away.
