The Grassmarket is one of Edinburgh's best known street and will be an essential part of any tourists itinerary. The area is steeped in history and whilst there has been a tradition of on-going architectural development there is no mistaking the feeling of stepping back to medieval times as you wander the cobbled streets passing over the areas where markets were held and public hangings carried out. Many of the buildings in the Grassmarket date back to the 17th and 18th centuries and on the north side, and dominating the skyline, is Edinburgh Castle itself.
