Edinburgh to Egypt

The capital of Scotland and the second largest city after Glasgow, Edinburgh is undeniably one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Often called as the Athens of the North, this wonderful city is blessed with mountainous landscapes, tall trees, wonderful flower gardens, gurgling rivers and stunning lochs. Here, there are many attractions that can keep tourists engaged for days. Some of which are the Water of Leith - a trout stream, Arthur's Seat - an extinguished volcano, Calton Hill - a viewpoint and Duddingston Loch - the ideal place for bird-watching in Scotland. Edinburgh is divided into many districts, and some of the most popular ones are Leith, Stockbridge and Canonmills, New Town, Old Town, and Portobello. Old Town and New Town, both listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, are dotted with historical and modern edifices. The presence of North Sea on the eastern side of Edinburgh has blessed it with several beautiful beaches, as well.
