A smattering of venues graces the elegant streets of the northern New Town. Bounded on the south by Queen Street Gardens, this upscale residential zone sports wide streets, leafy gardens, and stunning townhouses. Attractions for the visitor are clustered around a couple of north-south thoroughfares, and in the bustling hub of Stockbridge.

This is, first and foremost, gallery territory. The grandly-titled Edinburgh Photographic Exhibition Centre is the largest and most visible; but a hunt through the back-streets turns up small-scale artists' collectives such as Patriothall and the Adam Pottery - while commercial galleries crowd around Dundas Street.
