Arthur's Seat is a majestic hill in Edinburgh, Scotland. Rising above the city to an impressive height of 250.5 meters, it offers unparalleled panoramic views which can be reached by an easy ascent from the east side of the hill. It's also home to Salisbury Crags, a popular rock climbing spot with routes of varying difficulties. It has been a site of human activity for millennia, and numerous artefacts, churches, and legends can be linked to the area. A peculiar discovery made here in 1836 was that of 17 miniature wooden coffins which have been puzzling experts till this day. Arthur's Seat is an enriching, fun destination that should not be missed!
