Edinburgh
is a beautiful city which offers many delightful attractions
and locations that are well known and popular with both
visitors and residents alike. However, with so much on offer -
it is easy to miss or bypass some of the brighter if smaller
gems in the Capital's crown. Trove is a new guide which aims
to reveal some of Edinburgh's lesser known treasures...
Beautiful - Remarkable - Fascinating and Exciting attractions
