The Pubic Triangle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pubic Triangle is a facetious nickname for a district of Edinburgh, Scotland between Tollcross, Lothian Road and the Grassmarket. It tends to refer to the triangle formed by Bread Street, Fountainbridge and Earl Grey Street/Lothian Road, although it is sometimes spread out.

It is so called because of the concentration of strip clubs in the area, and also one or two saunas. Even so, it is more of a stag night area than a red light district.

The name is reputed to have been coined either by taxi drivers or journalists.
