Royal Museum

Chambers Street
0131 247 4422

Set in a magnificent Victorian building, the Royal Museum holds outstanding international collections and varied international temporary exhibitions, covering Decorative Arts, Science and Industry, Archaeology and the Natural World. The Main Hall is itself an attraction for visitors - flooded with natural light, the "bird cage" design creates a wonderfully tranquil atmosphere from which to start your tour.
There are two very good cafes here too. Cafe Delos is set in the main entrance hall, so you can soak up the fantastic ambience over a cuppa or a light bite, and Soupson is tucked away in nice, light little room, with a variety of excellent and unusual fresh soups as well as a beautiful array of pastries, salad, sandwiches and fresh fruit. Both are good places to rest and refuel.
