Greenyonder Tours - Hidden Gardens of the Royal Mile

null

THIS TOUR WILL START AGAIN ON 4 MAY 2013.

Take this short, easy walking tour and see a little-known side of Edinburgh's Old Town: behind the historic buildings discover the surprising number of gardens and green 'nooks and crannies', all with a story to tell. You'll see modern community gardens created by today's residents; discover how derelict sites were made into children's gardens in the 19th century; and take a breather in a beautiful space laid out and planted as a 17th century-Scots town garden.
Tour lasts approximately 90 minutes and ends at the Scottish Parliament.

Meeting Point: outside John Knox House (Scottish Storytelling Centre), 43 High Street
