Edinburgh

Scotland

Edinburgh serves as Scotland's capital, connected to Glasgow via the M8 and to England through the A1 southbound. The A90 links northern Scotland whilst the A720 bypass handles through traffic. Edinburgh Airport lies 12 kilometres west of the centre, with good rail links available. The city sits on volcanic terrain between the Forth and Pentland Hills, creating dramatic views from Princes Street up to the castle perched on its ancient rock.
