Actually, it is slightly short of a mile, is composed five streets, with different names.
From the castle in order: Castlehill, Lawnmarket, High Street, Canongate and Abbey Strand. Along it are the main public buildings: cathedral, law courts, Council main offices; lots of medieval and reformation era buildings. A must for all Edinburgh visitors. 250 metres south from Waverley station.
