Edinburgh's Christmas Market is back for 2025, and hundreds of locals and tourists are flocking daily to the city centre's winter wonderland.
This year, the seasonal site at East Princes Street Gardens has 71 artisan Scottish traders showcasing their goods in beautifully decorated chalets, with a handful of international traders also offering handmade crafts, treats and more.
Dazzling lights and installations also make for a magical stroll around the capital’s picture-postcard gardens.
