  1. edinburg


  2. Athens of the North

    Edinburgh is built on seven hills, like Rome. But it's not called the Rome of the North. On one of those hills – Calton Hill, overlooking the city's main thoroughfare Princes Street – there is a cluster of Greek style buildings reminiscent of the Parthenon in Athens. But this is not the reason why the city is called The Athens of the North. The acropolis is an unfinished building that was started in 1816 to commemorate those who had died in the Napoleonic Wars. However, it gives a Grecian touch to the dramatic skyline that reinforces the intriguing alias.
