Edinburgh Castle, steeped in ancient Scottish history, can be seen from Frederick Street, the street adjacent to Thistle Street. For lovers of history, the Royal Mile, the centre of the "old town", with its ancient heritage can give a fascinating glimpse into historic Edinburgh.

The "New Town", in which the flat is situated, was designed by young architect James Craig (1744-95). The New Town was mostly built of sandstone from Craigleith Quarry.

Also within walking distance are several art galleries - the National Portrait Gallery, the Gallery of Modern Art, the Dean Gallery and the National Gallery of Scotland.
