One of the many things that Scotland is famous for is its whisky and visitors to Edinburgh will be able to sample various types of the beverage in unique surroundings this year.
Edinburgh Castle will host whisky tastings on every Wednesday in October, with an additional event on Monday October 20th.
These occasions will give people staying in cheap hotels in Edinburgh the opportunity to try before they buy and also sample a little bit of Scotland in an iconic national location.
Edinburgh Castle is a powerful symbol of Scotland and occupies an instantly recognisable spot on top of an extinct volcano.
The first archaeological evidence for human settlement at the castle's location dates back to 900 BC, with the first historical reference to Din Eidyn – a fortress on the rock – traced back to 600 AD.
Today, the castle is Edinburgh's most popular attraction, with more than 1.25 million visitors every year.
