craigleith heritage depot

One of the best Tourist Information Centres I've ever been too. So much literature to pick from and the staff is so helpful. Here you will find dozens of free things to do as well as so many attractions I didn't know exsisted in the area

The lilacs were in bloom they cover a long way and the whole town smelled of lilacs and such spectacular colors . Go end the end of may to see the display

If you're visiting this area, stops like this one are key. The building is well-preserved and gives a real sense of the historic past. It sits immediately adjacent to where the old RR tracks were. You can stand there and imagine waiting for a train to come through in the early 1900s. The new rail lines are nearby. Inside you'll find a friendly docent/caretaker, local artifacts and history, and tourist booklets and information. It's important to keep and support places like this.
