An atmospheric shot of George IV Bridge from the roof of The National Museum of Scotland.

The museum is one of the less well-known viewpoints in the city. Its seventh-floor roof garden affords superb 360-degree views of Edinburgh’s city-centre skyline, providing an unusual perspective on landmarks such as Edinburgh Castle, Calton Hill, McEwan Hall and Arthur’s Seat.
