A note about the area:
The Grassmarket area is at the foot of the precipitous Castle Rock, by the West Port (the ancient "Flodden Wall" gateway to the city). It's infamous past is linked to public executions, which took place at the east end of the Grassmarket and the notorious activities of Burke and Hare in the West Port.
These days, the Grassmarket is a very fashionable and popular local area, which offers a wide variety of shops: specialty, second-hand and antiquarian bookshops, fashion, furniture, antiques, bric-a-brac and an abundant choice of dining, from sidewalk cafes and pubs to formal restaurants, all enhancing enjoyment of the summer evenings and long twilights. The Edinburgh International Conference Centre, Princes Street shopping, public transport, major theatres and attractions are all within a few minutes walk.
The Grassmarket area is a browser's paradise, a "must" for visitors who wish to experience the full delights of Edinburgh. Explore, relax and enjoy this marvellous area, basking under the protection of Edinburgh Castle. It is also a centre of activity during Edinburgh's famous festival periods.
