Hills in Edinburgh

Hills in Edinburgh

Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland is traditionally said to have been "built on Seven Hills"; this somewhat dubious claim (historically, the city was confined to the Castle Rock) is presumably intended to link Edinburgh with other cities supposedly built on seven hills, such as Rome and Lisbon. The Pentland Hills are also just to the south of the city.
