Located in the center of Edinburgh, Calton Hill offers great views, attractions and relaxation for everyone. Take the five-minute walk up the staircase from Regent Road or Royal Terrace to reach the top. There you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of the city, including Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street. There are also two observatories and an unfinished monument for casualties of the Napoleonic Wars, which began construction in 1822 and was supposed to be a replica of the Parthenon. Quiet, grassy hills provide the perfect escape from the bustling city below. Show All
