For an insight into Edinburgh's social history pause on your way down the Royal Mile to visit The People's Story, a fascinating museum crammed with the minutiae of everyday life. There's a wealth of artefacts and informative displays on everything from local bakers and brewers to Edinburgh tea rooms and pubs. The reconstructions of rooms are particularly interesting, and provide a graphic illustration of the extent of Edinburgh's housing problems right into the 20th century.
