Why Edinburgh?

Edinburgh, where the magic of Harry Potter was born

Edinburgh, the jewel of Scotland's heritage and culture, is a city where history and modernity intertwine. The city’s rich history is visible in landmarks, from the ancient Edinburgh Castle perched atop Castle Rock to the cobbled streets of the Royal Mile.

Additionally, Edinburgh holds a special place in the hearts of Harry Potter fans, as J.K. Rowling wrote much of the series in local cafés, drawing inspiration from sites like George Heriot's School and Greyfriars Kirkyard.

This blend of past and present, reality and imagination, makes Edinburgh a truly enchanting destination.
