Surrounded by steeply sloping streets and closes evocative of the days when the teeming tenements housed ordinary people and the highest in the land lived cheek by jowl with each other and their domestic animals.<p>The Old Town provides a huge variety of shops catering for every taste from whisky to the occult and from Highland Dress to Playing Cards. There are Galleries, Antique Shops, Crafts, Jewelry, Textiles, Cameras and Electrical Goods, Camping Equipment and Brushes. You will find hostelries whose history goes back for centuries next door to the most cosmopolitan of restaurants. Whatever your taste, you will find somewhere to enjoy eating and drinking in the Old Town. And it isn't all in the Royal Mile ! For some of the most intriguing shops, the most enjoyable food and drink, you must explore the Grassmarket and the Bridges and look down the interesting side streets and closes.</p><p>Unlike most city High Streets where the same national chains of shops, bars and restaurants can be seen whichever town you are in, Edinburgh's Old Town is rich in specialist shops, small restaurants and intimate little bars. Whether it is shopping, hotels, bars, cafes, restaurants or just memorable sights, there is a feast of attractions for the visitor to Edinburgh and to Scotland.</p><p>Doors Open Day on 28th September gives you an opportunity to get inside some of the historic buildings in the Old Town and elsewhere in the City. You will be able to visit 20 properties in the Old Town including Old College, the City Chambers, the Bank of Scotland, South Bridge Vaults, the Signet Library and Old Moray House, as well as many more in the New Town and elsewhere in the city. The event is organised by the Cockburn Association on behalf of Historic Scotland, and further details are available on the Cockburn Association website<a href="http://www.cockburnassociation.org.uk/">www.cockburnassociation.org.uk</a> and in leaflets available at the Edinburgh Tourist Information Centre"</p><p>There are two ways you can look around this site, either press the "Where to go" button top left to look around by the area of the Old Town or use the buttons at the top to find the service or item you are looking for.</p><p>This site is currently under revision, so be patient and please visit it again.</p></font></p></body>
