Entertainment & Activities

Enjoy unique 360 degree panoramic views over Edinburgh from the fascinating Camera Obscura and rooftop terrace. In World of Illusions, experience five floors of interactive hands-on optical illusions, tricks and fun things to do including vortex tunnel, mirror maze and shrinking room. Great fun for all ages and nationalities, whatever the weather. Scotland’s oldest purpose-built attraction, established in 1835. This is probably my favourite tourist attraction in Edinburgh. Its like a fairground for adults! Great for kids too. You've got to try the spinning tunnel!
