Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland, is the second most popular tourist destination in the United Kingdom mostly because of its many historical and cultural attractions. There are over a million international visitors every year who come from all over the world to visit its many sites and experience its uniqueness. The city is famous for its annual Fringe Festival, which is the world's largest arts festival, and the Edinburgh International Festival, which brings top class theatre, opera, and dance performers from around the world. Institutions such as the National Museum of Scotland and the Scottish National Gallery are open to visitors all year long, while other historic sites that shouldn't be missed are Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, and the Canongate.
