Frommer's Review

Across from the Canongate Kirk and housed in part of historic Huntly House is the Museum of Edinburgh, another free museum run by the city. It, too, concentrates on the capital's history with a set of rooms on different levels featuring reproductions and original items to represent the city and its traditional industries, such as glassmaking, pottery, wool processing, and cabinetry. It even has Greyfriar Bobby's collar and feeding bowl.
