Descend into a Cold War bunker, piece together
guerrilla mosaics, unearth the most glorious of
grottoes, genuflect before the wooden robot overlord,
sniff out dogs more dazzling than Greyfriars Bobby,
peruse a 17th-century list of ladies of pleasure, get
water-boarded in a prototype Jacuzzi, travel to the Wild
West of Morningside, discover hidden gardens and
clandestine art that not even the neighbours know
about.
Far from the tourist traps and the crowded landmarks,
you may have thought Edinburgh had no more to
reveal, but the city still keeps many treasures hidden
away in the most unexpected of places.
An indispensable street and armchair guide for those
who thought they knew Edinburgh well or who would
like to explore the curiosities of this most secretive of
cities.
