EDIMBURGO È La Capitale Della Scozia, Nonché La Città Inglese Più Famosa E Visitata Della Gran Bretagna, Dopo Naturalmente Londra
EDIMBURGO È la capitale della Scozia, nonché la città inglese più famosa e visitata della Gran Bretagna, dopo naturalmente Londra. La sua particolare disposizione, su una serie di colline, le ha fatto guadagnare l’appellativo di Atene del Nord e il suo centro storico è uno dei più belli e meglio conservati d’Europa. Diviso a metà da Princes Street e dagli omonimi giardini, comprende la Old Town a sud e la New Town a nord, entrambe dichiarate Patrimonio dell’Umanità dall’Unesco. Mentre la Old Town conserva la sua struttura medievale, e si sviluppa attorno alla principale via cittadina (la Royal Mile, che collega l’imponente Castello della città con l'Holyrood Palace, la residenza ufficiale in Scozia della regina Elisabetta), la New Town è un mirabile esempio dell’architettura e dell’urbanistica dell’epoca georgiana, con il suo reticolo di ampie vie perpendicolari tra loro e chiuse alle estremità da due piazze quadrate: St Andrew Square a est e Charlotte Square a ovest. Ma Edimburgo non è degna di interesse soltanto per la sua storia (qui hanno vissuto Maria Stuarda e lo scrittore Robert Louis Stevenson), ma anche per la sua vita culturale, movimentata dai numerosi festival internazionali (il Festival di Edimburgo, Fringe, Tatoo Military) che si concentrano nel mese di agosto. Edimburgo è anche la città scozzese con la più alta concentrazione di pub e ristoranti e la patria dell’autentico scotch whisky. Indimenticabile il suo tipico skyline, caratterizzato dal profilo del maestoso castello costruito sul promontorio di un antico vulcano, a dominare dall’alto i viali spaziosi, i palazzi eleganti e i numerosi giardini che l’hanno trasformata, dopo il sovraffollamento che ha vissuto durante il Medioevo, in una città estremamente vivibile.
