Visiting Art Galleries in Edinburgh

If you base yourself at Craigwell Cottage for your stay in Edinburgh, you will be within easy walking distance of the City Centre Art Galleries. A short stroll up Calton Road turning up New Street and into East Market Street will bring you to the nearest of these, the City Art Centre, which often hosts interesting exhibitions. Directly opposite is the Fruit Market Gallery. Another short stroll, cutting through the beautiful East Princes Street Gardens, will bring you to the National Gallery and the Royal Scottish Academy situated at the bottom of the Mound, and linked by the Weston Link. In the Weston Link you will find a cafe and restaurant, and there are often opportunities to participate in art-based activities and create your very own masterpiece.
