Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Inverleith

"63 The Shore, Edinburgh EH6 6RA277 St John’s Road, Edinburgh EH12 7XA250 Canongate, Edinburgh EH8 8AA1 Market Street, Edinburgh EH1 1DE. Yet another hugely successful bakery has recently started moving into the vegan cake arena – and we couldn’t be happier!. Mimi’s has been delighting omnivores for years with their seriously indulgent cakes and bakes, but after enjoying success with their animal product free range at last year’s Christmas market, they have decided to extend their offering."

"The National Monument of Scotland lies on Calton Hill, overlooking the city. The monument was designed to commemorate Scottish soldiers who fought in the Napoleonic Wars, but was never completed. The monument has stood since 1829 and is a popular tourist attraction."

"The National Monument of Scotland was built from 1826 to 1829. It honors both the Scottish soldiers and sailors who lost their lives during the Napoleonic Wars of 1803 to 1815. Based on the Athens Parthenon, the Scottish equivalent is clearly unfinished."

"This hill is home to a series of monuments, including the National Monument of Scotland, which bears more than a passing resemblance to the Parthenon in Greece. Which makes sense, because that’s what it was modelled on."
