摘要
从15世纪开始，爱丁堡就成为苏格兰的首府，雄踞在市中心的爱丁堡城堡。为爱城奠定了十分魔幻的基调。创造出现代童话《哈利·波特》的J．K.罗琳。曾流连在爱丁堡的咖啡厅里。一字一字酝酿出轰动全球的哈利·波特风暴。而每年夏季的爱丁堡艺术嘉年华，以及在冬季号称全欧洲最盛大的跨年派对，更成为造访爱丁堡最充足的理由。
Edinburgh has been the Scottish capital since the 15th century, It has two distinct areas： the Old Town, dominated by a medieval fortress; and the neoclassical New Town, whose development from the 18th century onwards had a far-reaching influence on European urban planning. The harmonious Juxtaposition of these two contrasting historic areas, each with many important buildings, is what gives the city its unique character, without mentionino the birth of Harry Potter.
