Nelson Monument review
If the views from Calton Hill aren't grand enough for your liking, you can get an even better vantage point from the top of the Nelson Monument, designed in the shape of Nelson's telescope. Be warned, though: despite its sturdy structure the viewing deck can feel very exposed on windy days.
