Edinburgh tourists flock to celebrate Queen's Jubilee in the capital sunshine

As the nation prepares to celebrate The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee following the beginning of the long bank holiday weekend, the city of Edinburgh seems to have attracted a number of English tourists who appear keen to get involved with the royal revelry.

Thursday, June 2, marks the beginning of the official festivities which has led to a number of UK companies declaring an extra days holiday for workers to mark the occasion, presenting the perfect opportunity to plan a quick trip to the capital.

With the weather looking promising, Edinburgh Live ventured into Princes Street Gardens to discover more about people’s plans to mark the historic event and their thoughts regarding the holiday.
