Dundee
Along the northern shores of the Firth of Tay, Dundee has settled into its traditions and history. The northeastern city in Scotland keeps up with the rest. Dundee has done its job as far as balancing the old with the new, being a historical yet modern city at the same time.
Day Trips/Events in Dundee
At such a location, travellers are put in an ideal position for exploring the rest of northern Scotland. The surrounding area covers in parks, gardens, villages, and fairytale castles. Glamis Castle is one of the most famous for the romance it exudes. Edzell Castle and Broughty Castle are also popular day trips from Dundee. Around the city, the coastal scenery warrants exploration while golf courses provide recreation.
To say that Dundee hosts loads of events would be an understatement. Daily, the city has some sort of activity to pass the time away. Throughout the year, hundreds of festivals, events, and concerts take place. With the arrival of spring, Dundee celebrates the blooming beauties of flowers at its Flower Show. In winter, traditional craft fairs and markets add that magic to the holiday season. In summer, it is all about the music with a number of festivals blaring their songs and sounds.
Eating Out in Dundee
Being so close to the sea, fish makes its way on to most restaurant menus in town. Fish and chips are a speciality at many restaurants. Tearooms and bakeries satisfy morning hunger and elegant bistro establishments dish out dinner. More diverse cuisines can also be found in town including Asian, Belgium, and Eastern European specialities.
Things to see/do in Dundee
Dundee offers enough attractions to occupy travellers for days. With a great deal of ground to cover in the surprisingly compact Dundee, Argus Car Hire serves as a great option for mobility in and around the city. Most begin by exploring the city square. The square cuts to the heart of the city, being right in the centre. City square adds that whimsy in its centre statue, Desperate Dan, the beloved cartoon character to come out of Dundee. More history is up for viewing at Saint Mary’s Church, founded way back in 1190. The true highlight in town may be the maritime historical remains. Two wooden ships still sit on the Dundee waterfront, the RRS Discovery and the HM Frigate Unicorn.
Just as Dundee claims to host a rich history, the modern appeals are there as well. The city holds several museums including Dundee Contemporary Arts, a centre for modern art, design and cinema. A walk up to Dundee Law Hill is another favourite activities of travellers. The prominent hill lends one of the great views of Dundee.
