Outside Edinburgh's Centre

Dean Village, Edinburgh

A few major Edinburgh attractions lie outside its centre:

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art are a pleasant half-hour walk away, while Edinburgh Zoo and the Royal Yacht Britannia are best visited using a Lothian Bus – see details in the entries.


Many other Edinburgh attractions outside the centre are covered in the free Edinburgh's Best app: download it via links at TouchScreenTravels.com.
