Edinburgh - Lonely Planet Travel Video

Lonely Planet author George Dunford sums up Edinburgh. More Europe than Britain probably because of the month-long Edinburgh Arts Festival every August, the city is sophisticated Scotland. Pub culture is the backbone of society, making it easy to meet the locals. Try scotch or hand-made Real Ale but steer clear of football in conversation until you find out which team they go for!

Ha this guy likes the Scottish parliament? If he lived in Edinburgh he wouldn't be to happy with how much money was wasted on it, And dont let me start on the tram :p

I love Edinburgh. It's such a cosmopolitan friendly place. It's well worth scratching the surface to see the real Edinburgh not just the tourist veneer. Stay a while if you can. That's coming from a Glasgow fan. Both cities are very different, but both pay real dividends if you spend time getting to know them.

@anticapitalist10001 Wow,i really have to go there as soon as possible!

@anticapitalist10001 actually no, racism isn't "very bad" in Edinburgh. I've lived here all my life and none of my friends of another race have ever been subject to any kind of racism and I have never heard of anyone I know being abused in any way shape or form. Obviously there is racism present but I'm pretty sure there is racism in every country at present.. Overall you can shove your ridiculous, bullshit accusations up yer arse and fuck off. :)

this week one polish man murdered, around 6 months ago one vietnamese scottish restaurant owner was murdered by a group of teenagers.couple of years ago one chinese take=away owner was murdered.racism is very bad in scotland.if some racist neighbours know you are a foreigner they would try to ruin your life with loud music,smashing your car's window or your window,throwing rubbish in your garden,disturbing you on the bus or on the train...government is very passive so racist have been rewarded

The video doesn't do any justice to this fabulous, cranky, weird city. Best place in the western world. Don't need no Aussies giving half-baked poor quality revues, thanks!!!!

I love Edinburgh but i hated living there or while i was in school. I loved the cultural exchange though.

[SunburntBrownie]
