ABERDEEN
Aberdeen is a city in Scotland with several beautiful parks and green spaces. Each park has its unique charm with facilities and features for all ages. The open and closed spaces allow visitors to enjoy hobbies, play or relax.
Aberdeen is known as the 'flower of the North' or the floral capital of Scotland. The city is popular across the world for its horticultural displays awarded locally and internationally. In total, there are 14 public parks and gardens including countryside parks, nature reserves, and trails. People also have access to the 3.000 acres of publicly owned woodlands.
Seaton Park is in the north of the city on the banks of River Don. At the park's south gates, visitors will see the fortified towers of St Machar's Cathedral which leads to the 'Cathedral walk' wherein spring and summer flower beds, rose beds and herbaceous borders create a magnificent sight. There is also a walled garden in the northeast corner up the hill. It is best visited in late spring when azaleas are in full bloom.
Seaton Park is a great place for Sunday strolls and photography. Families with children will enjoy the play area and tree-lined walks. Wide grass open spaces and manicured lawns are picnics and sport. The park also offers great wildlife watching opportunities.
Another wonderful green space in Aberdeen is Victoria Park. Named after Queen Victoria, the park aims to improve the quality of life in an urban setting. The park's central feature is a granite fountain that displays the quarried granite from the Aberdeen area.
On the backdrop, impressive big trees and beautifully tended flowerbeds in a variety of colours can be seen. The great lawns are suitable for picnics during a family day out. It is a peaceful and safe place great for some quiet time and relaxation. A visit is highly recommended to restore your spirit.
Johnston Gardens in Viewfield Road is one of Aberdeen's hidden gems. Unlike the first two parks, this one is on a smaller scale. It is a beautiful park with landscaped gardens with streams, ponds, waterfalls, rockeries and a picturesque bridge.
The park comes alive in the spring and the summer when rhododendrons, spring bulbs, heathers and alpines blossom. Irises, aquatic plants, swans, mallard ducks and breeding moorhens can be found in the ponds. There is also a small waterfall which provides a refreshing sight during high temperatures. Birds such as robins and blackbirds can be spotted, too.
Sit on one of the benches to bask in the tranquillity and the views of the garden. Johnston Gardens is highly recommended to those who love to read outdoors or meditate with the sound of nature in the background.
At Polmuir Road, Duthie Park is loved by locals and visitors. The Band Stand, fountains and boating ponds are all restored Victorian features present in the park. The David Welch Winter Gardens is also a nice feature that houses a public indoor plant collection. It serves as an oasis away from the bustle of the city.
The Winter Gardens has one of the most visited plant collections in Scotland. It features subtropical desert plants, colourful and bright flowers and other exotic plant species. Beyond the botanical gardens is the extensive manicured lawns with trees and more flowers. Duthie Park has been awarded the Green Flag Park Awards in 2013. The award is granted to recognise the quality of green spaces.
