The National Galleries of Scotland control three galleries housing great Scottish artworks, all of which are based in Edinburgh. While the Scottish National Gallery and the Scottish National Portrait Gallery are easily accessible from the city centre, the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art is located slightly further afield to the west of Dean Village, so it’s a little bit inaccessible to unfamiliar visitors (see the map further down the page). The journey to the gallery is well worth it though as not only is it spread out across two beautiful early 19th-century buildings but the landscaped grounds are full of artworks that can be enjoyed in addition to the ones housed indoors.
