Scotland’s capital has plenty going for it, from the famous Royal Mile stretching through the heart of the Old Town to Edinburgh Castle which sits atop the city. It’s known as one of the most vibrant cities in Scotland, offering an eclectic mix of independent shops, restaurants, and bars.
In recent years, Edinburgh has embraced a creative approach to urban development, particularly through the innovative use of shipping containers. These repurposed containers have been transformed into everything from remote cafes to large multi-purpose structures that serve as hubs for community events and creative projects. This trend reflects the city’s spirit of innovation and its commitment to blending tradition with modernity, making Edinburgh a continually evolving and exciting place.
