Speyside, Banffshire, AB38 9SR
531 Great Western Road, AB10 6PE
96 Rosemount Viaduct, AB25 1NX
Sightseeing Overview
Most visitors come to the city to see Old Aberdeen, which lies 2.4km (1.5 miles) north of the main city centre. This pretty old quarter dates back to the 15th century and comes complete with cobbled streets and historic architecture. It is also home to the city's university and its lively student population.
Aberdeen also has a deserved reputation as a floral city, which is in evidence wherever you are in the city, but particularly so at the wonderful Union Terrace Gardens. For a taste of yesteryear head to Footdee (pronounced 'fittie'), a 19th-century fishing village that's situated just south of the city. And when you need to take a break from the sights, head east to the beach that's lined with excellent bars and cafes where you can relax and watch the world go by.
