City of Destination
Aberdeen is situated 108km (67 miles) N of Dundee, 209km (130 miles) NE of Edinburgh. Bordered by fine sandy beaches, Scotland’s third city, Aberdeen, is often called the "Granite City" because its buildings are constructed largely of pink or gray granite, hewn from the Rubislaw quarries. The harbor is one of the countries largest fishing ports, filled with kipper and deep-sea trawlers, and Aberdeen lies on the banks of the salmon- and trout-filled Don and Dee rivers. Spanning the Don is the Brig o' Balgownie, a steep Gothic arch begun in 1285. Old Aberdeen is the seat of one of Scotland's major cathedrals, St. Machars. Although it hardly compares with Glasgow and Edinburgh, Aberdeen is the center of a vibrant university; it boasts a few marvelous museums and galleries; and it's known for great nightlife and shopping, the best in the northeast.
