Leith - Edinburgh's port
Filed in archive Destination: UK + Ireland by Karen Bryan on August 08, 2008

The former Royal Yatch Britainnia is now a tourist attraction docked outside the Ocean Terminall shopping and leisure centre. The Scottish Government administrative headquarters are next to Ocean Terminal.
There's street art along the bank of the Water of Leith which flows into the Forth Estuary at Leith portraying the industrial heyday of the docks.

So don't just stick to the city centre when you're in Edinburgh, venture down to Leith, although you will encounter some road works on Leith Walk where the new tram lines are being constructed.
