Forth Bridge
To many, the greatest bridge in the world is the magnificent Forth Bridge.
Best viewed from the town of South Queensferry, it lies 9 miles (14 km) west of central Edinburgh. Great place to visit for half a day away from the bustle of the city. Enjoy lunch or an evening meal with fabulous views across the water.
With three bridges spanning three centuries, the Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and the Queensferry Crossing (close to completion) are a magnificent testament to Scottish engineering. 
Only 15 minutes by train (Edinburgh to Dalmeny Station). Cost £4.60 (£2.30 child) return (off-peak or £8.00 anytime). See thetrainline.com for info. Short walk down a path to the waterfront.
South Queensferry is an historic little town with some cool cafes and good pubs. Cool and trendy Orocco Pier and historic The Hawes Inn.
After the celebrations of Hogmanay, South Queensferry is home to the aptly named Loony Dook, where hardy (still drunk) folk take to the icy waters to start their New Year with a "jings, it's absolutely fahreeezzing!!!"
If you want to make a day of it, why not take a 90min cruise under the bridges aboard the Maid of the Forth. Beautiful views of Fife and fascinating history of life on the river. Seals can often be spotted lazing on the rocks of the little islands.
