The Neighborhood
The Grassmarket is one of Edinburgh’s most historic and vibrant neighborhoods. Located just below the castle, it is a hub of independent boutiques, artisan makers, and some of the city’s oldest and most atmospheric pubs. Once a medieval marketplace and site of public executions, it is now a pedestrian-friendly area filled with character. You are steps away from the Royal Mile, the Victoria Street 'Diagon Alley' curves, and the National Museum of Scotland. The neighborhood perfectly encapsulates the dual nature of Edinburgh—steeped in ancient history yet buzzing with contemporary creative energy and nightlife.
