Why Edinburgh is a Great City

Following on from last week's blog, we at Cullen have decided to focus on why we think Edinburgh is a great City to live in.  Hopefully we will have included some things you didn't know about, as well as ideas for activities to do!

Where to start...   Edinburgh has an abundance of places to visit, such as:

- The Zoo - not only can you see all the animals at Edinburgh Zoo, they also have different events on throughout the year from sleepovers at Halloween to Firewalking to raise money for charity.
- The Castle - the Great Hall is also a must see up at the Castle.
- Ghost Tours -  Mary Kings Close is a popular one, however there are a number of ghost tours that take you around Edinburgh's Old Town.
- Camera Obscura - a very fun day out with illusions that will make your head spin!
- Carlton Hill - great for a walk with views across to Fife.
- Arthurs Seat & Salisbury Crags - another great walking area with outstanding views across Edinburgh.
- Dynamic Earth - after a brisk walk up Arthurs Seat, head down to Dynamic Earth where you will learn about our amazing planet.
