Our Top 5 Rainy Day Activities in the West End

Modern Art Gallery

Wander the corridors and rooms of the Modern Art Gallery, and marvel at the artwork spread over the gallery’s two buildings. Brave the rain and head out into the grounds or let the kids go wild in the indoor children's area.

Fountain Park

There is plenty on offer at Fountain Park, with a range of entertainment for the whole family. Film buffs can head to the cinema, gamers can enjoy the arcade, and kids can choose from laser tag, mini-golf, bowling and the trampoline centre.

Georgian House

This magnificently restored Edinburgh townhouse boasts a collection of paintings, costumes and period furnishings. The kitchen and servants’ room gives a glimpse of the life of servants that made the lavish lifestyle possible.

St Mary's Cathedral

This beautiful cathedral with stained glass windows that transform the woodwork into a kaleidoscope of colour. The organ is one of the finest in Scotland and you may be lucky enough to hear someone practising during the day.
