Aberdeen A City Hemmed In Silver

Civilizations are believed to have sprung up in Aberdeen along the River Don and River Dee more than 8000 years ago

. Scotlands prominent city is bordered by the two rivers and bordered by sand dunes and beaches. The rocky city is built on the hills making the weather mild and the winters long.

Aberdeen is dubbed the Silver City, Grey City and Granite City, all for the same reason; its rich deposits of granite. The skyline and landscape of Aberdeen is unlike that of any other city, as it is coloured by the silver hues of the mica the granite contains. The glistening marble has been used for most of the citys buildings, monuments and terraces much to the fascination of tourists. The city is aglow both in broad daylight as well as in the depths of dusk.

Its rich mineral deposits earned the town the name Oil Capital of Europe and caused quite a sensation in Europe several decades ago when they were found. Oil rigs off its northern shore fuel the district and are a principal reason for the thriving economy.

The blossoming enticers are as dazzling as the buildings around. The daffodils, crocuses and roses of Aberdeen have won the Britain in Bloom competition several times. The silvery grey castles fringed by the beautiful parks and flourishing flora are by all means a breathtaking sight. The kids favourite is Storybook Glen, a park where all their best loved cartoon characters secretly dwell inside castles, behind the drapes of waterfalls and snuggled among the bushes.

It is not difficult to be at ease and relax in Aberdeen. Lifestyles are not laidback, but the atmosphere is refreshing. Base yourself at a comfortable Aberdeen hotel to explore the wonders, magic and sparkling sensations of the area. The restaurants, bars and entertainment are authentically Scottish as is the Copthorne Hotel Aberdeen, starting from its marble exteriors. Hotels in Aberdeen, like all other structures have a castle like aura to them, making their guests feel like king and queens.
