45 Chambers Street, Edinburgh EH1 1JF Scotland. Few Edinburghers live in the Old Town, but its labyrinth of dank alleys and steep streets suggests this was not always the case. Today, it's mostly visitors, tartan-flavoured souvenir shops, and pipers that you'll find on its cobbled streets. This is the place to get a feel for Auld Reekie.
