Dunbars Close Garden
THIS VERDANT OASIS HIDES IN plain sight on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile. Tourists stream along the high street, perusing its shops and meandering into the many museums that pepper the thoroughfare, but few take the time to duck into this little green space.

Dunbar’s Close has the design of a 17th-century garden, though it wasn’t created until the 1970s. Landscape architect Seamus Filor, funded by the Mushroom Trust, transformed the old close into a series of parterres sandwiched between the Canongate Kirk walls to the west and a blend of stonework and hedges to the east.

60 minutes • Admission Ticket Not Included

Grassmarket
Venture back to 1477 when the Grassmarket was one of the most predominant marketplaces in Edinburgh. A large portion of its happenings entailed the buying and selling of cattle and horses. Apparently, the name 'Grassmarket' derives from the animals' grass and pens, which were located at the western end.
