History, discovery and days out in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
One of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire’s greatest strengths is its history and heritage and rich archaeology. The area has a wealth of archaeological sites and heritage buildings, locations and visitor attractions.
Trying to put together a top 10 list would be nigh on impossible as such a list would miss something out! Aberdeenshire is known for its Castles which can be enjoyed on Scotland’s Trail. The county is home to many and varied historic buildings, some of which can be enjoyed during the annual Aberdeenshire Doors Open Day event in September.

Autumn is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. The changing of the leaves and the morning dew make for the ideal setting to enjoy some of what the Aberdeenshire countryside has to offer.

Play Me, I'm Yours
'Play Me, I’m Yours' part of the internationally touring artwork devised by British artist Luke Jerram. We went on search of the 12 pianos as part of a tour around Aberdeen.
The piano's are placed at a number of different tourist sites, attractions and walkways throughout the city centre and at Aberdeen Airport's arrivals.

Insiders tips for cocktails in Aberdeen
One of my most enjoyable past times in Aberdeen is to join the excitable crowds on a Friday or Saturday night in savouring a cocktail or two at one of the many chic city bars.
