Aberdeen, often called the “Granite City,” is a vibrant city in the north east of Scotland. Renowned for its sparkling grey stone architecture, the city boasts a unique blend of historic charm and modernity. Visitors can explore sandy beaches, visit historic villages such as Footdee, locally known as ‘Fittie,’ and wander down the cobbled streets of Old Aberdeen around the historic Aberdeen University before enjoying great shopping experiences and delicious independent restaurants and cafes in the city centre.
