Leith
Leith has been Edinburgh's seaport since the 14th century, but it fell into decay
following WWII. It is now undergoing a steady revival, with old warehouses
turned into luxury flats and a lush crop of trendy bars and restaurants sprouting
up along the waterfront leading to Ocean Terminal, a huge new shopping and
leisure complex, and the former Royal Yacht Britannia.
