Dean Village

Dean Village is a historical and picturesque part of Edinburgh, located on the northern bank of the Water of Leith and nestled in a valley at the base of the Dean Bridge. Its beautiful cobbled streets and stone buildings link to Edinburgh's grand past, adding character to the city. Its peacefulness is occasionally interrupted by the sound of the river, that is home to families of swans, ducks and other water birds. The charming village is often used as a location for romantic movies, and its picturesque walls, arches and ancient mill buildings is a popular photo spot. Visitors to Dean Village can take a stroll along the tree-lined riverside path, visit the HistoricScotland-managed Water of Leith Visitor Centre for more information, or admire the sculpture garden with greenspace.
