May 27, 2021 Layne Dawes

Edinburgh is Scotland’s capital city, renowned for its heritage, culture and festivals. Take a long walk around the centre to explore the World Heritage Sites of the Old Town and New Town, as well as all the area’s museums and galleries. Then stop for a delicious meal made from fresh Scottish produce before heading out to take in one of Edinburgh’s many events — including the famous summer festivals of culture, or the Winter Festivals of music, light and ceilidhs.

Primark

Reviewed By giannisa866 - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

If you want to buy something for yourself or you want to make a gift to someone or take something for souvenir its the cheapest shop in Edinburgh. It has everything and for example the same clothes we saw in Greece is cheaper than our country. Ask me anything and follow me Instagram page thessalonikiday ❤️????

Emma Roy's

Reviewed By vich-ed1 - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

I visited Emma Roy’s last week with my mum and I have to say it was such a lovely experience. I was a little worried as I had heard some negative comments about the shop over the last few years but Mairi the assistant was superb. She was really patient and made it such a lovely experience. I hadn’t realised that the shop has been recently taken over so I wanted to let other brides know this in case they, like me, were worried about the service they would receive. I would absolutely recommend going to Emma Roy’s for your wedding dress.

For two centuries the Laing family has been at the forefront of the Scottish jewellery trade. Established in 1840 by James Laing, the company quickly became known for exceptional design and superior craftsmanship – a reputation that has only grown over some 175 years. Laing has a long tradition in both the manufacture and wholesale of fine jewellery and watches.
