People love walking and the pavements of Edinburgh are full of stories of crime, history and intrigue- ready to be discovered. This second, revised edition of Edinburgh’s Hidden Walks will show readers the house that Walter Scott lived in as a child and the spot where poet Robert Burns kissed his Nancy for the last time, as well as allowing you to walk in the footsteps of the beloved characters from Irvine Welsh’s Trainspotting. With this book in hand, readers can explore the streets of Edinburgh from the grand Georgian terraces of New Town to the former docks of Leith, and see this fabulous city in a new light. Edinburgh’s Hidden Walks contains 14 illustrated walks and over 400 full-colour photographs with detailed maps to illustrate each walk and useful lists of local attractions (museums, galleries, historical houses) and the best cafés and pubs. |
