Great attractions to keep your kids entertained in Edinburgh
"Edinburgh's Camera Obscura (meaning "dark room") is a fascinating and delightful way to take advantage of the wonderful views of the city from Castle Hill. Located immediately beside Edinburgh Castle, this intriguing attraction is housed in a Victorian rooftop chamber at the apex of the Outlook Tower. Inside this mysterious room, you can see moving images of Edinburgh's panorama projected onto the walls by the giant periscope."

"Opened in 1835, Camera Obscura is Edinburgh’s oldest tourist attraction. The gallery focusses on visual illusions, featuring a number of experiences and hands-on activities to explore and enjoy. On site, you will find a mirror maze, an Ames room which will appear to shrink around you, and a vortex tunnel which will provoke a sense of imbalance even though you are completely stable!"

Here's Where You'll Find the Best Shopping in Edinburgh
"Grassmarket is snuggled in the center of Edinburgh’s Old Town and is bursting with local shops and so much good food. Mary’s Milk Bar is supposed to have incredible gelato (sadly never got to visit while I was in the city), and in the summer there are stalls set up selling even more food and locally made jewelry and art. Nearby is Victoria Street, which is a chocolate box-esque street that looks like stores were literally stacked on top of one another."

Strolling down the historic streets of Edinburgh
"The plans to construct an iconic city hall in Edinburgh were sparked in 1896 by Andrew Usher, renowned whisky distiller, who promised to fund the project. In 1914, Usher Hall was built by architects Stockdale Harrison and Howard H Thomson, a magnificent and classical beaux-arts-style concert hall which stood in defiance against the Victorian Gothic architecture so commonly found within the city of Edinburgh. Situated on Lothian Road in the west of the capital, Usher Hall is instantly recognizable with its curved walls, geometric precision and intriguing exterior design, featuring famous Scots such as Sir Walter Scott and Robert Burns."

Nine of the very best vegan places to eat in Edinburgh
"Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch (affectionately known as BBL) is an Edinburgh deli-cafe and takeaway on the Pleasance that’s open from 8am to 3pm daily, hence its name. They might not do dinner, but their breakfast options are out of this world, and they also have a very special home made vegan Lorne sausage that is made with their signature blend of herbs and spices. A vegan roll and sausage is a fantastic hangover cure, and you can combine it with a tattie scone if you want something that’s extra filling, or go the whole hog and opt for the full vegan breakfast, a bargain at just £5.50, and just sit, relax, and watch the world go by."
