West End & Dean Village
Edinburgh's West End is an extension of the New Town, with elegant Georgian
terraces, garden squares and an enclave of upmarket shops along William St and
Stafford St. It takes in the Exchange district, now the city's financial power-
house, and the theatre quarter on Lothian Rd, and in the west tumbles downhill
into the valley of the Water of Leith to meet the picturesque Dean Village.
