  • Spend two days in Edinburgh Scotland with me! In 48 hours in Edinburgh I did a ton, including drinking at a panda-filled speakeasy behind a bookcase, browsing a beautiful secondhand bookshop, walking the Water of Leith waterway, tasting whiskey and gin at a hyper local Edinburgh distillery, and more. You'll get tons of inspo for a future Edinburgh visit, especially if you want to discover the more "local" side of the city.

    So glad you went to Edinburgh! One of my favorite cities in the whole world. Scotland is mystical and magical. Some of the tastiest and most imaginative food. I'm not vegetarian, so I love their beef and seafood, particularly salmon. The vegetable sides were incredible, so fresh and clean. Their single malt (scotch) whisky is my go to for that type of drink. Can't do American stuff any more! So much to see and do in this small country. The history is unbelievable.
    And, you said it! The people are so interested and interesting! Kind and thoughtful.

    I think one of the secrets to visiting edinburgh is if you’re only visiting the city centre and the slight surrounding areas, is avoid uber and busses, its such a walkable city with hidden wonders that you stumble upon randomly, as a local i always thought one of the allures of the place was how close everything you want to see is, its a city made to be loved on your two legs

    • @loveandlondon

Dean Village is really nice, beside the water of Leith, just 20-30 mins walk from Stockbridge and the Botanical gardens. The hill/scarp you see (9:28) from Regent Road is Salisbury Crags with Arthur's Seat behind it (Calton hill is immediately behind where you were standing)

Although it is one of the smallest hills, Calton hill has great view of the old town, over to Fife and Greek inspired architecture. The restaurant on Calton Hill is another good lunch spot, at fairly affordable prices, with a grand view over the old and new towns

    @paweka5821 Před 2 lety +1

    Water of leith is a river. Edinburgh also has a canal called The Union Canal with nice path to walk, specially in summer. The mountain you called Calton Hill is a Holyrood Park with popular Arthur`s Seat on top a little to the left. When you pointed Calton Hill with your finger the Calton Hill was right behind you and in my opinion the city looks better from smaller Calton Hill than from Arthur`s Seat, but it`s only me🙂 Nice movie!

    Like me, you are ambivalent and questioning about the monarchy, but something worth seeing resides on the Leith seafront at Edinburgh: the decommissioned Royal Yacht Britannia, which you can go round deck by deck. The royals wanted it scuttled (sunk) so that we can’t see it. It gives a marvellous insight into the workings of the monarchy. As a taster: the biggest department is the laundry, since life on it was so formal. Up to 12 changes of uniforms in tropical climates, with different clothes for specific times of day. I’ll never forget my family outing there.

But,I am on my mission ,Wales is the main reason/ destination.

    Someone may have already pointed out that what you called Calton Hill is actually Arthur's Seat (aka Holyrood Park). Calton Hill is what you would have been facing at the top of Jacob's Ladder.
    And your walk to Tell's Books then all the back back across the city centre and down the New Town hill to Treen is a long - but wonderful - stroll. When you were at Treen you were two minutes walk from the Water of Leith. Just a few minutes one way up that is fabulous Dean Village, with the Gallery of Modern Art beyond that, while a few minutes the other way gets you to the Stockbridge Colonies and the Royal Botanical Gardens. Stockbridge is one of the city's more fabulous areas.
    Worth noting that at Treen there is a selction of gent's clothing on the lower level.
    And yes, David Baan's vegetarian restaurant is great. A friend and I, both non-vegetarian, had lunch there and it was fabulous. We enjoyed everything, including the peaceful ambience. One shouldn't be put of by the idea of a vegetarian meal; most great starters are vegetarian (salads etc.) as are desserts, while the mains at Baan's, the various fascinating concoctions and combinations that sounded unreal, were fabulous. We are definitely going back.
    Thank you for this video. It is always great to see the city I love through the eyes of visitors discovering it anew.

I'm aware prices in Edin are "almost" high es London but its hard to tell as you're vegan and that food is more expensive lol. Same with the bars and etc woulds been more useful is you went into more local hearty usual places to get s sense of the vibe for everyday people and the prices. Well done on getting up them stairs though hahhahaaa omgg

      I'm vegetarian and actually veggie/vegan food isn't more expensive, it's often cheaper than the meat and fish dishes at the same restaurant.
