Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland and the twin city

of Kyiv, the
capital of Ukraine. Four hundred and fifty thousand people live
there. In fact, the city is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Europe.

Слайд 13

TEXT
It is one of the most desirable places in the world

to live and study,
with a wide range of theatres, galleries to visit, clubs and shops to
exercise your wallet. Although the sky is often grey, Edinburgh itself is a colourful city — it mixes modern and medieval, the traditional and
the new.

Слайд 14

TEXT
With its stunning Georgian and Victorian architecture, and winding
medieval streets,

it’s easy to see why Edinburgh has been listed as
a World Heritage Site. This is a city that knows how to be both
ancient and modern.

When you arrive, the first thing you see is Edinburgh

Castle, on a hill,

Edinburgh were volcanoes. Today, the volcanoes are quiet.
Edinburgh Castle is Scotland’s most visited attraction.

Слайд 16

parks and green places right in the busy city centre.
