<p>Portsmouth England. A very historic Waterfront city with most of the city being on Portsea Island making it the UKs only island city. Portsmouth remains the home of the Royal Navy and was once the most fortified city in the world. It has the oldest dry dock in the world and the RN dockyard was a huge driver in the industrial revolution with the worlds first production lines. I have included a link to Portsmouth's Wiki page as the cities history goes way back to Roman time. It is very interesting reading if you are interested in history.<br />

<p>The former Kings Head hotel in Darlington is now part of the Mercure Darlington Hotel, which includes several other interconnected buildings in the same block. The interior has been completely remodeled to the point you'd have no idea you were in a vintage building. I was in the room directly above the old Kings Head sign.</p>

<p>Commentary.<br />
<br />
Capital of Scotland.<br />
The Athens of the North.<br />
Built on and around extinct volcanic plugs.<br />
The Royal Mile is a special High Street linking <br />
the Royal Palace of Holyrood to<br />
Edinburgh’s Castle, on its volcanic rock.<br />
The architectural masterpiece that this city represents, can be viewed from summits of 100, 150 and 251 metres,<br />
namely Calton Hill, Salisbury Crags and Arthur’s Seat.<br />
What can be seen from these landmarks? So much, including:<br />
Holyrood Palace, Scottish Parliament Building,<br />
“Armadillo” Discovery Building, St. Giles Cathedral,<br />
Edinburgh Castle, Princes Street,<br />
Waverley Station, Scott Memorial, Leith and its docks,<br />
Edinburgh’s Georgian “New” Town, Dean Village,<br />
Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh Zoo,<br />
many churches and two more Cathedrals,<br />
at least a dozen museums, the Firth of Forth,<br />
the Kingdom of Fife and even the Queensferry Crossing.<br />
The so-called New Town is reminiscent of Bath,<br />
with its splendid Georgian Crescents and Squares.<br />
Across the city there are many medieval buildings,<br />
like the house lived in by John Knox, full of character and distinction.<br />
Edinburgh is one of the most popular cities for visitors from Britain and Europe.<br />
Huge numbers of tourists also come from Asia, America, Oceania and Africa.<br />
Events like the Military Tattoo and “Fringe” street entertainers<br />
attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every year.<br />
In summer, the city can be as busy at 03:00 as it is at 15:00.<br />
Like London it is immense because of its fabulous culture,<br />
amazing history and the huge number of places of genuine interest.<br />
It is certainly one of my favourite cities.</p>
