The Eighteenth century wit and man of letters, Dr Johnson, thought that the best thing in Scotland was the road to England.
Each year a million and a half visitors to the Edinburgh Festival show that they don't agree.
For three weeks in the summer the city plays host to one of the biggest and most varied cultural events in the world.
Visitors can choose between classical drama, experimental plays, opera, recitals, concerts, jazz sessions, one-man shows, film shows, exhibitions, readings, displays and performences of every kind. There is even a military tattoo.
If Dr Jonhson was alive today he would forget the road to England, at least for these three weeks.
