Are these the UK’s most panoramic public gardens? Quite possibly. Made up of two neighbouring parks and dating back to the building of the New Town, the centrally located Princes Street Gardens grant superb castle views. They’re also dotted with all manner of points of interest of their own, from the towering dark spire of the Scott Monument to an animal statue commemorating Wojtek, the so-called “soldier bear”.
