Don’t miss to devote at least half a day to do shopping in some of the biggest shopping centers of the city : Jenners with its hundred of shelving, Harvey Nicols with its five floors of fashion shops .
Your stay would be incomplete if you don’t taste at least one kind of beer in one of the pubs . If you like brown ale try a Douglas Ale. If you prefer a light ale ask for a Gordon finest one, but be careful it’s quite a strong beer .
If you stomach and you liver are strong enough, taste two specialities of Scottland : the haggis and the Aberdeen Angus . You will never forget it.
To stay in great shape don’t forget to bring with you your running shoes so you will be able to take part in the great winter run which takes place every 8th of January(www.edinburghguide.com/events/edinburghgreatwinterrun)
