Time Out Shortlist Edinburgh

<div>With its underground caverns, ancient castles, and imposing skyscape, Edinburgh has long been a favorite of visitors intrigued by history and natural beauty. Recent explosive growth has also made it a destination for those who seek more urban pleasures. This comprehensive illustrated guide serves both, taking readers over every inch of the city and surrounding area. Time Out&#8217;s local writers offer expert advice on where to wine, dine, shop, and club, covering everything from medieval architecture to irresistibly cozy brewpubs. Clear maps and photos throughout keep visitors oriented.</div>

Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what's happening in the world's greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously.
