Edinburgh travel tips
To earn the favour of the locals in Edinburgh, don't treat them like English
The Scots fought for independence for a long time and still do not consider themselves fully British. Therefore, if you want to win over the locals, in no case call them English – this will offend them greatly.
Nightlife in Edinburgh is quite active, but the bars are open until about 01:00
Going to a bar or pub in the evening is the main entertainment in Edinburgh. Still, most of them close at 01:00, and new guests are not let in in about an hour. All drinking venues in Edinburgh can be divided into two categories: those around George/Queen Street (cocktail bars with a relaxed atmosphere) and Grassmarket (pubs, student bars, etc.).
Check out the works of Warhol and Picasso at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Arts in Edinburgh
Admission to the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Arts is free. The museum houses a collection of works in the style of Cubism and Impressionism. Here you can see many works by Matisse, Picasso, Warhol, and others. There is a sculpture park next to the museum, which will also be interesting to explore.
