Don’t miss the Grassmarket area of the Old Town, which has numerous quaint little cafés, restaurants and shops.
You can get an unusual panoramic view of the city from the Camera Obscura on Castle Hill in the Old Town. This focuses light into a dark room and gives a 360-degree view of the city outside.
