About Aberdeen

Aberdeen is a picturesque port city situated in the northern part of Scotland. The place boasts a rich history and natural beauty that you can experience when here. When in Aberdeen, you can visit some truly magnificent castles sitting in breathtaking locations like the Dunnottar Castle. A little less rustic and more preserved castle, also near Aberdeen, is the Craigievar Castle and is yet another delight to behold! Since Aberdeen enjoys access to rivers and a coastline, it comes as no surprise that you will be able to visit the many beaches in the area including Balmedie Beach.

If you are looking for something more happening with a youthful crowd surrounding you, you can dance till you drop at the Lemon Tree. Another way of experiencing Aberdeen is taking a stroll across the Old Aberdeen region and enjoying a glimpse of the history of the place!
