About Hull

Located at the point where the River Hull joins the Hull estuary is the city of Hull, or Kingston upon Hull to give it its full name. The cobbled streets of the city's Old Town takes visitors back to days gone by. The city's Museums Quarter is home to a number of free museums and tells visitors the story of the city's past.

The city hosts a number of festivals each year. The Humber Mouth literature festival is held annually as is the Hull Jazz Festival which takes place around the Marina for a week at the beginning of August. A recent additional to Hull's festival scene is the 2008 founded Freedom Festival which is an annual free arts and live music event. Performers have included Pixie Lott, JLS and Martha Reeves and the Vandellas.

In October there is the annual Hull Fair which is one of Europe's largest travelling funfairs and is held on land adjacent to the KC Stadium.

As Hull is the largest town in the East Riding of Yorkshire it has developed into a good transport hub and destination for the region's shoppers. The city centre has three main shopping centres: St. Stephen's, Princes Quay and the Prospect Centre.

About Edinburgh

Located in the Central Belt region of Scotland, the city of Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city, and has been recognised as such since the 15th century. Overlooked by its imposing castle, the symbol of the city, Edinburgh combines medieval relics, Georgian grandeur and a powerful layer of modern life with contemporary avant-garde. Medieval palaces rub shoulders with the best of modern architecture, Gothic churches with amazing museums and galleries. Scotland's throbbing night-life centre, Edinburgh, "the Athens of the North", is also a feast for the mind and the senses, playing host to great restaurants, shops and an unequaled programme of city festivals throughout the year. Hogmanay, the Scottish New Year, kicks off the festivities, which culminate in the high summer with the Tattoo, the International and the Fringe, amongst many others.

The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh were listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO in 1995. In 2004, Edinburgh became the first member of the UNESCO Creative Cities initiative when it was designated a City of Literature.

Edinburgh's historic centre is bisected by Princes Street Gardens, a broad swathe of parkland in the heart of the city. To the south of the gardens is the castle, located on top of an extinct volcanic crag, and flanked by the medieval streets of the Old Town following the Royal Mile along the ridge to the east.
