Scale rocky crags on the edge of town to get a closer look at Arthur's Seat, a once-active volcano that erupted more than 300 years ago. Though interesting by itself, the views from the rocky vista are the best in the city, showcasing a 100-kilometer, 360-degree panorama. This is a large park, perfect for hiking, and is fun for kids, thanks to a lake full of well-fed ducks and swans. Although there is plenty of discussion, no one knows where the strange name originated.   (© 10Best)
