Where the signal goes
Fine year-round, and then August happens. During the Fringe the Royal Mile carries crowds the local network was never built for, and data slows to a crawl in the afternoons.
Getting around
Walk, but know the city is built on hills and the Old and New Towns are on different levels.
Neighbourhoods
Old Town
The Royal Mile and the castle. Unavoidable, and worst in August.
Stockbridge
Down the hill, with a Sunday market and the Water of Leith walk.
Leith
The port, and where the good restaurants are.
What's on
Festival Fringe
August
Across the city
The population roughly doubles. Book everything absurdly early.
Hogmanay
30 December to 1 January
City centre
Ticketed street party, and the trains stop early.
