The Nottingham to Edinburgh online drive is an ideal place to start exploring online places to visit; particularly if you have never taken a "virtual road trip" before. Our journey starts in Nottingham, aptly named the "Party Capital of the Midlands" due to the many pubs and clubs opened in recent years. Following the A1 north bound leads to the first waypoint at York Minster where we explore Viking history and the cathedral. Back on the A1 we continue north until we see the signs for Newcastle, which is our second waypoint. Then it's onward to EDINBURGH , the showcase capital of Scotland.
