Donald Anderson: Tourism is at heart of capital's success
The tourists that visit Edinburgh help support shops, restaurants, theatres and other services that a small city of just half a million people would be unable to otherwise support. Tourists even support our own holidays by increasing flights and trains – not to mention making them cheaper.
Edinburgh has had huge success in tourism. From the stunning beauty of a city where almost every corner turned in the city centre presents a picture postcard view, to the visionary post-war creation of the International Festival and the more recent triumph of our fantastic winter festivals. Edinburgh is a wonderful place to live in and visit.
