Saint Vincent Street Sights

St. Vincent street is dominated by St. Stephens Church, which has the longest pendulum of any clock in Europe—and perhaps the world. The flat is located adjacent to Stockbridge, with three supermarkets and many local shops which include the best bakeries in Edinburgh. It’s close to the Royal Botannical Garden, a nine-minute walk from Princes Street, and is not far from major bus lines to other parts of the city.A bus ride to the Old Town offers quick access to Arthur’s Seat and Salisbury Crags, which contain nice natural walking areas within the city, as well as panoramic views of the city itself. If cityscapes (even natural ones) aren’t for you, the Water of Leith offers 11 miles of footpaths for walkers.
