Edinburgh Weekend Breaks

The unique rotating boat lift, part of the Millennium Link project, has also been listed in a British Waterways and Waterways Trust survey as one of their Seven Wonders of the modern waterways.

And the Falkirk Wheel has enjoyed the largest rise in visitors of any British tourist attraction, figures released in February 2007 show.

The wheel, which transfers boats between the Union canal and the Forth and Clyde canal, showed a rise of 48 per cent, a larger percentage increase than Kensington Palace in London, which enjoyed the second largest percentage rise, a boost of 45 per cent.
