Aberdeen's history goes back more than 8,000 years; however, it is perhaps best known today for its off-shore oil industry and cosmopolitan atmosphere. It's sometimes referred to as the "Granite City," named after the grey-stone downtown buildings that seem to sparkle in the sunlight. It has a welcoming tourist infrastructure, including a wealth of great hotels and other accommodations. The neighborhoods maintain a fun, youthful vibe thanks to the city's two universities. Whether you're seeking history, shopping or nature, deciding where to stay is often the best way to begin your Aberdeen, Scotland vacation.
