Edinburgh, Scotland - 17 June 1989 - (1 of 2) 

I grew up in Edinburgh during the 80's and your video brought back so many happy memories. That was probably Prince's Street during its heyday. When it was worth heading down town. Now it's sadly just a shadow of its former self. All the iconic buildings have since disappeared.

Great Video, shame Edinburgh Live will end up making an article about it

Not a phone shop in sight ! I grew up in edinburgh and was 14 when this was filmed , i remember the sprinter buses .

before tourism ruined Edinburgh, it's quite strange now to see normal civilian traffic go along princes street. Great nostalgic video.

Thank you for this video it is so nice to see Edinburgh looked like. Now, it is not the same. Very sad

Can't believe how quiet looks

That McDonald's restaurant is still there today!!

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career . . .

15:20 Granton gas works. I miss seeing all three of them. They really dominated the north Edinburgh skyline.

I was aged 8 on the 16th June, 1 day before this video was made ❤

If the date is correct, my twin and I were born not far from here, two weeks later. Wild.

Edinburgh castle

Unfortunately its Edinburghski these days. Hardly hear a scottish accent in the place. Full of Polaks now
