EDINBURGH'S
FESTIVALS |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
I love Christmas. Princes Street on a snowy winter's
day, with the lights in the trees and people bustling around the shops
is a sight to behold. A few years back, the city started putting on some
special events, like a giant Ferris wheel, a German Christmas market and
an ice skating rink in Princes Street Gardens, which has evolved into
a fabulous Winter Wonderland. It all kicks off with the switching on of
the lights on Princes Street, and the centrepiece is when Santa comes
to town, "flying" into Festival Square to take the keys to the
city from the Lord Provost, so he can get into houses without chimneys.
For two weeks, Princes Street Gardens also host Santa's Reindeer Garden,
where Santa feeds live reindeer twice a day, as he collects mail from
his post box. For further information, contact: |
