A new study has revealed the top 10 most "overcrowded" tourist attractions in Europe - and an iconic Edinburgh spot has come in at number one.

To determine which tourist sites are said to be the busiest, luxury travel company The Thinking Traveller looked at Tripadvisor reviews for the most popular attractions in Europe and counted how many reviews mentioned the words 'overcrowded' or 'busy' for each one.
