You can buy a souvenir almost anywhere. How often do you get to make one?!
One of the HOTTEST experiences we had in Edinburgh wasn't a famous landmark or a guided tour, it was stepping into the forge at Work of Iron and learning from our fantastic instructor Jack, the centuries-old craft of blacksmithing.
For a few hours, we traded our cameras for hammers, heated metal rods in the fire, and turned a simple piece of metal into something we could actually take home.
It gave us a whole new appreciation for the craftsmanship behind every handmade piece in the city.
If you're looking for an experience you'll still be talking about long after your trip ends, this is it!
