Edinburgh, Scotland
Royal Commonwealth Pool
This public pool house, now a category-A listed building in Edinburgh, represented Scotland's attempt to become a world power following World War II.
Edinburgh
Dubbed the “Athens of the North” for its spectacular surroundings, rustic buildings and a huge collection of medieval and classic architecture Edinburgh, Scotland is known to be one of the most gorgeous cities in Europe. A visit to Old Town will feel like stepping back in time, as most structures remain in their original forms. The old Edinburgh Castle peers over the city from its perch on atop a volcanic hill with the sharp cliffs. The amazing surroundings may be partially responsible for why the city is riddled with a history of great writers making it the first city to be titled as a UNESCO city of Literature.
