The Meadows has open views to Arthurs Seat, and is crossed by several tree lined avenues. Its large expanse of flat grass make it a magnet for people who want to hang out in the open air. It’s regularly used for activities such as cricket games, football matches, and barbeques. It’s also a venue for a number of festival events, including the Meadows Festival takes over most of the area for the first weekend in June. The Meadows is also often used as a rally point for many marches and protests in the city.
And once autumn arrives, there’s plenty of scope for taking photos!
