High sight it is, and haughty, while They dive into the deep defile; Beneath the cavern’d cliff they fall, Beneath the castle’s airy wall.

Still pouring down the rocky glen, Where flows the sullen Till, And rising from the dim-wood glen, Standards on standards, men on men, In slow procession still, And sweeping o’er the Gothic arch, And pressing on in ceaseless march, To gain the opposing hill.

The Cowgate is where the weekends are very lively as the area is closed of to traffic to allow the crowds to party between pubs and clubs. There are plenty of places to stay eat drink and party but don't expect to have a quiet time in this street at a weekend.
