Edinburgh World Heritage Events

View west across the Georgian splendour of Edinburgh New Town, with the line of Princes Street (left of centre), George Street (centre) and Queen Street (right) running parallell. Princes Street Gardens are prominent to the left, as are Queens Street Gardens to the right. The recently renovated gardens in St. Andrews Square, just above centre foreground, form a symmetrical pattern with those in Charlotte Square, at the other end of George Street, upper centre right. The Royal Academy and National Gallery are situated on The Mound, which runs through Princes Street Gardens mid-left. Edinburgh Castle, situated on the volcanic crags overlooking Princes Street Gardens, dominaters the upper left of this view.
