60 metres high, inaugurated in 1844, it is Edinburgh's tribute to one of its greatest men: Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832). A total of 68 statues cover him and represent characters from his works. During his lifetime, his novels were best-sellers that were shipped from the port of Leith to London, where they were then distributed throughout Europe. Among the winners are Ivanhoe, Quentin Durward, Waverley, Rob Roy and l'Antiquaire. To get to the top, you'll have to climb 287 steps. His house is visible at 25 George Square.
