Old Aberdeen
Originally a separate Royal Burgh to Aberdeen itself, Old Aberdeen is today well-known as the home of the University of Aberdeen. Here you can find ancient buildings, beautiful and quaint streets, modern architecture and sculpture. There are parts of Old Aberdeen that feel more like other university towns, like Cambridge or Oxford. During term time, the presence of thousands of students gives the area a youthful and international feel.
