Join me for an epic walk around the spectacular city centre of Scotland's incredible capital: Edinburgh. On our 100th walk on this channel, we'll take in the sights of this marvellous city over the course of 80 minutes, walking from the New Town towards Edinburgh Castle, down The Royal Mile, past Greyfriars Bobby, up to St. Giles' Cathedral, and down to the Palace of Holyroodhouse. On our walk around Edinburgh, we pass a number of fascinating landmarks, including (deep breath): The Balmoral Hotel, Princes Street, Scott Monument, St. Andrew Square, George Street, Royal Scottish Academy, Princes Street Gardens, The Mound, Scottish National Gallery, The New College, the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, Tolbooth Kirk, Lady Stair's Close, Writers' Museum, Makars' Court, the Bank of Scotland, Victoria Street, West Bow, Grassmarket, The Wee Pub, Covenanters' Memorial, Greyfriars Kirkyard, Candlemakers' Row, Greyfriars Kirk, Greyfriars Bobby, The Elephant House, National Museum of Scotland, The Old College, Tron Kirk, St. Giles' Cathedral, The News Steps, Cockburn Street, Canongate, John Knox House, Canongate Tolbooth, Canongate Kirk, Scottish Parliament Building, Arthur's Seat and The Palace of Holyroodhouse.
