The new Museum of Scotland, regaling stories of Scotland’s colourful past, is certainly worth a visit, as is the Royal Yacht Britannia and the domed structure of Dynamic Earth, where visitors can experience a close encounter with the veritable forces of nature. Just across the Forth Bridge is Culross, one Scotland’s most picturesque settlements, with its whitewashed and yellow ochrewashed and red-tiled buildings. The many attractions include the NT Visitor Centre, Culross Palace and the remains of Culross Abbey. The Perthshire Highlands, Borders and Fife, offering good walking opportunities and numerous golf courses, are within driving distance. Many pubs and restaurants close by. | | How to get there: | Liberton Tower is easily found on the outskirts of Edinburgh city center. The Address of the Tower is:
