| Leisure & Tourism


The Royal Mile, as well as offering plenty of tourist attractions, offers plenty of shops selling traditional Scottish items Ð so if you are looking for an authentic tartan kilt, or perhaps a box of the finest shortbread this is the place to start. 
When it comes to independent boutiques and unique purchases for the person that has everything then the West End is the perfect place to indulge yourself. Leith by comparison offers a completely different waterside shopping experience with some of the best seafood restaurants in the city.
