Aberdin - Aberdeen

Xuddi shu nomdagi boshqa joylar uchun qarang Aberdin (ajralish).
Birlik ko'chasidagi shahar uyi (ya'ni shahar zali) tashqarisida band bo'lgan kun

Aberdin (Shotland galigi: Obar Dheten, Shotlandiya: Aiberdin) uchinchi yirik shahar Shotlandiya, Birlashgan Qirollik, deyarli 200,000 aholi bilan (2018). Bu Shotlandiyaning shimoliy-sharqiy qirg'og'idagi, Edinburgdan shimolga taxminan 120 mil (190 km) shimolga va Londondan 400 milya (650 km) shimolga joylashgan, bu erda Di va Don daryolari shimoliy dengiz bilan to'qnashgan shahar. Bu muhim dengiz porti, mintaqaviy markaz va Shimoliy dengiz neft sanoatining markazidir.

Buyuk Britaniyaning me'yorlari bo'yicha masofadan turib bo'lsa-da, bu hech qanday oqim emas; Aberdin obod va kosmopolit shahar (qisman Shimoliy dengiz moyi tufayli) va o'zining ajoyib va ​​bezakli me'morchiligi bilan ajralib turadi. Aksariyat binolar shahar va uning atrofida toshbo'ron qilingan granitdan qurilgan va natijada Aberdin tez-tez nomlanadi Granit shahri. Shuningdek, u shahar bo'ylab ko'plab ajoyib bog'lar, bog'lar va gullar ko'rgazmalari va uzoq qumli plyaji bilan mashhur. Aberdin unvoniga ega Evropaning neft poytaxti va Buyuk Britaniyadagi eng baxtli joy sifatida bir nechta so'rovlarda ovoz berilgan, 2006 yilda o'tkazilgan so'rovnomada ko'kalamzorlashtirish va jamoat ruhining katta joylariga ishora qilingan. Bloom tanlovida 10 marta Britaniyani yutgan.

Aberdin boshqa Shotlandiya kabi ko'plab sayyohlarni jalb qilmaydi Edinburg yoki Sent-Endryusva o'zini yanada aniqroq his qilishi mumkin. Bu Shotlandiya bo'ylab sayohatda bir necha kun to'xtash uchun juda yaxshi joy, ayniqsa qal'alar, golf, viski distillash zavodlari, manzaralar, tog'lar (chang'i va snoubord kabi) imkoniyatlaridan foydalanish uchun kengroq hududni o'rganish uchun juda yaxshi joy. , sohil va boshqa diqqatga sazovor joylar Aberdinshir va Royal Deeside. Shu bilan bir qatorda, Aberdinning olisligi, ammo qulayligi va kosmopolit tabiati, agar siz haqiqatan ham stressdan xalos bo'lishni istasangiz, bu shaharni qisqa muddatli tanaffus qilish uchun qiziqarli joyga aylantiradi.

Tushuning

Ilgari Aberdin Universitetining bir qismi bo'lgan, hozirda Aberdin shahar kengashining shtab-kvartirasi bo'lgan Broad Streetdagi Marischal kolleji.

Aberdin kichikroq Glazgo va Edinburg, ammo boshqa Shotlandiya shaharlaridan kattaroq. Buyuk Britaniyada va hattoki Shotlandiya me'yorlariga ko'ra bu masofadan turib va ​​ko'pincha "olisdagi" hazillarga sabab bo'ladi (eng yaqin shahar juda kichik Dandi 70 mil uzoqlikda). Shunga qaramay, Aberdinga erishish ajablanarli darajada oson va zamonaviy va obod shahar. Britaniyalik mehmonlar shimolda shu qadar jonli shaharni topib, ko'pincha hayron qolishadi. Qisman neft boyligi va uning yagona yirik viloyat markazi maqomi tufayli u ancha katta shaharning imkoniyatlariga ega. Bularning barchasi birgalikda Aberdinga bugungi kunda Britaniyaning ozgina joylarida mavjud bo'lgan o'zini o'zi qondirish havosini beradi.

Aberdin Shotlandiyaning eng gullab-yashnagan joylaridan biri hisoblanadi Shimoliy dengiz moyi sanoat va kam ishsizlik darajasiga ega (2017 yil yanvar oyida 2,2%), bu Buyuk Britaniyaning boshqa shaharlariga nisbatan past jinoyatchilik darajasiga olib keladi. Neft sanoati va universitetlar tufayli immigratsiya shaharga kosmopolit havosini beradi, bu ko'pincha mehmonlarni ajablantiradi. Ko'chalarda butun dunyodan tillar eshitilmoqda.

Neft narxi keskin pasayib ketdi - 2012 yilda bir barreli uchun 125 AQSh dollaridan (Brent xomashyosi) 2016 yil boshida 35 AQSh dollarigacha, 2018 yil sentyabr oyida 80 AQSh dollarigacha ko'tarilishdan oldin. Bu Aberdin iqtisodiyotini tushkunlikka tushirdi va neft sanoatida ish o'rinlari qisqartirildi. Do'konlar va restoranlar tinchroq bo'lib, ba'zi mehmonxonalar narxlari pasaytirildi.

Yo'nalish

Aberdin Britaniyaning shaharlari uchun odatiy bo'lib tasodifiy ko'rinishga ega bo'lgan o'rta asrlar tartibiga ega. Shahar markazi milga bo'lingan Union Street shimoliy-sharqiy / janubi-g'arbiy yo'nalishda harakatlanadigan (Buyuk Britaniya va Irlandiya o'rtasidagi 1800 yilgi "ittifoq" nomi bilan). Shimoliy-sharqiy uchida asosiy kvadrat - joylashgan Castlegate - Union Street ko'chasidan chiqishda (sharqdan g'arbga) Broad Street, Shiprow, Market Street, Aziz Nikolay maydoni va Union Terrace kabi muhim yo'llar mavjud. Union Street-ga parallel ravishda Guild ko'chasi (temir yo'l va avtostantsiyalar joylashgan) va Schoolhill-ga olib boradigan Upperkirkgate. Castlegate-dan sharqda yo'llar plyaj va dengiz, Union Streetning boshqa uchida esa West End-ga (ko'plab millionerlar yashaydigan) yo'llar olib boradi. G'ayrioddiy tarzda port shahar markazida joylashgan va Shiprow, Market Street, Guild Street va Marischal ko'chalaridan tezlik bilan etib boriladi. Dei daryosi shahar markazidan o'tmaydi, balki biroz janubga. Don daryosi shaharning shimolidan, shahar markazidan taxminan 3,2 km shimoldan oqib o'tadi.

Bu joyda 8000 yildan ortiq vaqt yashagan bo'lsa-da, shahar o'rta asrlarga qadar rivojlanmagan. Zamonaviy shahar birlashib o'sgan ikkita aholi punkti - Don daryosining og'ziga yaqin bo'lgan Eski Aberdin (1495 yildan beri universitetning uyi) va Denbern, 3,2 km janubda joylashgan janubdagi Nyu-Aberdin tomonidan tashkil topgan. Dei daryosini uchratdi (Denburn uzoq vaqtdan beri avtomobil va temir yo'l bilan qurilgan, ammo uning yo'nalishini Union ko'chasidagi ko'prik kesib o'tadi).

Shaharning ko'pgina farovonligi dengiz va uning bandargohi tomonidan ta'minlandi - 20-asrning o'rtalariga qadar baliq ovlash va merkantil savdosi iqtisodiyotning asosiy asoslari bo'lib, granit qazib olish va o'ymakorlik, mahalliy qishloq xo'jaligi va ishlab chiqarish (masalan, qog'oz va mato). Keyinchalik, ushbu sanoat tarmoqlari pasayib ketdi, Aberdin joylashgani esa uni Shimoliy dengiz neftining asosiy bazasi sifatida mukammal qildi. Bugungi kunda ko'pchilik odamlar neft bilan bog'liq ko'plab kompaniyalarning birida ishlaydi yoki kimdir kimnidir biladi va bu ish joylari yaxshi maoshga ega. Ko'pchilik Shimoliy dengiz platformalarida offshorlarda ishlaydi va ikki hafta yoki shunga o'xshash smenalarga borishadi vertolyot, shahar osmonida ko'zga tashlanadigan narsalar. Biroq, aholining bir qismi Shimoliy dengiz moyidan foyda ko'rmadi va hali ham qashshoqlik va qashshoqlikni boshdan kechirmoqda. Aberdinda jami 30000 talaba tahsil oladigan ikkita universitet mavjud: 1495 yilda tashkil etilgan va dunyodagi eng qadimgi universitetlardan biri bo'lgan Aberdin universiteti; va Robert Gordon universiteti (RGU).

Schoolhill, Aberdin shahridagi granit binolar. Oldingi gumbazli bino 1901 yilda Aberdin akademiyasi maktabi sifatida qurilgan; bugun u erda gumbaz ostida Jek Uils kiyim-kechak do'koni joylashgan Akademiya Savdo Markazi joylashgan.

18-asr, 19-asr va 20-asrning boshlarida o'sib borayotgan farovonlik katta qurilish muhandislik loyihalarini, shu jumladan, Union Street (ko'p qismi aslida ko'prik) va ko'plab yirik va bezakli binolarni qurishga olib keldi. Katta me'morchilik shaharning o'ziga xos xususiyatlaridan biri, xususan Neoklassik, Gothic Revival va Shotlandiya Baronial uslublari. O'rta asr binolari yog'ochdan yasalgan edi va bir nechta halokatli yong'inlardan so'ng shahar rahbarlari faqat tosh bilan qayta qurishga qaror qilishdi. Shaharda va butun Aberdinshirda qazib olingan mahalliy tosh granit bo'lib, u 1960 yillarga qadar deyarli barcha binolarni qurish uchun ishlatilgan va shaharga nom bergan. "Granit shahar". Quyoshli kunda granit quyosh nurlari bilan porlaydi, garchi "dreich" (kulrang va bulutli) kunlarda kulrang granit binolar shaharga yanada g'amgin muhit bag'ishlashi mumkin.

Texnologiyalar takomillashganligi sababli, granit arzonroq ishlov berilishi mumkin edi, bu keyingi binolarda tosh kabi toshlarni yanada bezakli o'ymakorlikka imkon beradi. Marischal kolleji ("Marshall" kabi talaffuz qilinadi). Granit dengiz orqali eksport qilinishni boshladi, xususan London bu erda ko'plab binolar Aberdin yoki Aberdinshire granitidan qurilgan (masalan, Trafalgar maydonidagi favvoralar). Biroq, yuqori darajada o'yilgan granit hali ham qimmat edi va egasining muvaffaqiyati va maqomini namoyish etdi, yon va orqa devorlari xuddi arzonroq, ishlov berilmagan toshda qoldi. Vanna. Ushbu binolarning aksariyati (xususan, shahar markazida) hozirgi kunda qayta tiklanishga muhtoj va so'ngan ulug'vorlik havosiga ega. Binolar endi granitda qurilmaydi, lekin u hali ham qoplama material sifatida keng qo'llaniladi va zamonaviy binolar betonida granit parchalari juda ko'p ishlatiladi.

Kashf etilgandan so'ng Shimoliy dengiz moyi 1960-yillarda shahar baliqchilikka bog'liq bo'lgan oqlangan, ammo kamayib borayotgan orqa suvdan energiya sanoatining rivojlangan markaziga aylandi. Bugungi kunda, ko'payib borayotgan aholi bilan bir qatorda, Aberdinga ko'p sonli odamlar chekka va chekka shaharlardan qatnaydilar, shov-shuv paytida trafik ko'p. Shunga qaramay, shaharning ba'zi hududlari qishloq tuyg'usini saqlab qolishmoqda. Ehtimol, buning eng yaxshi namunalari - Kultlar va Peterculter (o'zlarini Petercooter deb atashgan) singari Royal Deeside tomon cho'zilgan shahar atrofi.

Ikki kunlik mahalliy gazetalar Aberdinga xizmat qiladi: tabloid Evening Express va jiddiyroq Press & Journal (ko'pincha Aberdoniyaliklar "P&J" deb atashadi, shuningdek, Shotlandiyaning boshqa mintaqalariga xos nashrlarni nashr etadilar). Shahar haqida afsona mavjud Press & Journal bir marta "Aberdin odam dengizda adashgan" sarlavhasi bilan chiqdi. Bu 1912 yil aprel edi va voqea cho'kish haqida gapirdi Titanik. Bu haqiqat bo'ladimi yoki yo'qmi, ularni o'qish shahar va uning atrofidagi shaharlarda sodir bo'layotgan voqealar va hayot haqida qiziqarli fikr yuritishi mumkin. Siz ularni shaharning istalgan do'konida, supermarketda, do'konda, ko'cha yangiliklari stendida va boshqa joylarda xarid qilishingiz mumkin.

Aberdin va Shotlandiyaning shimoliy-sharqida ham badiiy adabiyotlar mavjud. Lyuis Grassik Gibbonning uchlik romani Kris Gutri ismli yosh ayol Shotlandiyaning shimoli-sharqida o'sgan va yashaganligi haqida hikoya qiladi. Birinchi, Quyosh botishi haqida qo'shiq (1932) uning jamiyatdagi va qishloq turmush tarzining o'zgarishi davrida Aberdin janubidagi qishloqda o'sganligi haqida hikoya qiladi. Quyosh botishi haqida qo'shiq 20-asrning eng muhim Shotlandiya romanlaridan biri sifatida qaraladi va ko'plab Aberdoniyaliklar uni maktabda o'rganishgan. Trilogiyaning boshqa asarlari Cloud Xau (1933) va Kulrang granit (1934), unda uning hayoti shimoliy-sharqiy shaharda davom etishi yoki Aberdin bo'lishi mumkin yoki bo'lmasligi mumkin.

Shotlandiyalik yozuvchi Styuart Makbraydning ko'plab jinoyatchilik romanlari Aberinda joylashgan. Uning detektiv serjanti Logan Makrey ishtirokidagi eng ko'p sotilgan trillerlarida shaharning va uning atrofidagi hayoliy qorong'i tomoni tasvirlangan, ammo shaharning hayotiy joylariga tez-tez murojaat qilishadi. Bunga quyidagilar kiradi Sovuq granit (2005), Dying Light (2006), Ko'zlar (2009) Suyaklarni maydalang (2011), Suyakka yaqin (2013) va Yo'qolganlar va o'liklar (2015). Ushbu romanlar ko'pincha shahardagi kitob do'konlari ko'rgazmalarida ko'zga tashlanadi. Iain Banksning 2012 yildagi romani Stememut (Bi-bi-si tomonidan 2015 yildagi dramatik serialga moslashtirilgan) jinsiy mojaro tufayli ketgandan keyin Aberdin shimolidagi kichik dengiz portiga qaytib kelgan odamni kuzatib boring. Uning nomi Aberdinning janubida bir necha mil janubda joylashgan Stonehaven shahridan moslashtirilgan bo'lib, teledasturning ko'plab sahnalari Aberdinshirning shimoliy qirg'og'idagi Macduffda suratga olingan.

Bundan tashqari, Aberdin haqida she'rlar antologiyasi deb nomlangan Kumush: Aberdin antologiyasi (2009) Alan Spens va Hazel Hutchison tomonidan tahrirlangan. Tarixchi Yan R. Smitning tug'ilgan shahri va u erdagi hayoti haqidagi fikrlari, ko'chib ketganidan keyin nashr etilgan. Aberdin: Granitdan tashqari (2010). Agar siz Aberdin yoki mahalliy yozuvchilar haqidagi kitoblarga qiziqsangiz, Waterstone-ning (Union Street / Trinity Savdo Markazi) yoki WH Smith (St Nicholas Center-da) kitob do'koniga qo'ng'iroq qiling. Har bir do'konda Aberdin va shahar hayoti haqida juda qiziqarli kitoblar mavjud bo'lgan mahalliy qiziqishlar bo'limi mavjud. Shuningdek, shaharning Rosemount Viaduct jamoat markaziy kutubxonasi eshik oldida joylashgan mahalliy bo'limga ega va hamma ko'rib chiqishi uchun bepul. Shahar arxitekturasi haqida eng tushunarli Aberdin: Tasvirlangan me'moriy qo'llanma V. A. Brogden tomonidan (4-nashr, 2012) va Granit mil: Aberdinning Ittifoq ko'chasidagi voqea (2010) Diane Morgan va boshqalar. Shahar tarixi, arxitekturasi, mahalliy hayot va boshqa mavzularda nashr etilgan juda ko'p kitoblar mavjud.

Shimoliy kenglikka qaramay (xuddi shunday Riga, Gyoteborg, Juneau, Alyaska va undan biroz ko'proq Moskva) qirg'oq bo'yida joylashganligi sababli Aberdin iqlimi nisbatan yumshoq, ammo Britaniyaning qolgan qismiga qaraganda bir necha daraja sovuqroq. Kutilganidan farqli o'laroq, quyoshli kunlar tez-tez uchraydi va tez-tez yomg'ir yog'maydi, ammo yog'ingarchilik paytida u og'ir bo'ladi. Aberdin ob-havosi juda yuqori o'zgaruvchan, quyoshli kun tez bulutli yoki hatto yomg'irga o'zgarishi bilan (va aksincha). Boshqa paytlarda ob-havo bir necha kun davomida doimiy bo'lib turishi mumkin va o'zgarishlarni oldindan aytib bo'lmaydi qatlamlarga kiyinish. U quyoshda hayratlanarli darajada iliq bo'ladi (ayniqsa, shamol engil bo'lsa), shuning uchun qatlamlarni ham olib tashlashga tayyor bo'ling. Soyabon odatda foydali emas, chunki yomg'ir tez-tez kuchli shamollar bilan birga keladi, bu sizning soyaboningizni noaniq yelkanga aylantiradi yoki aksincha uni ichkariga aylantiradi. Butun yil davomida dengiz tumanlari Haar kamdan-kam hollarda kechqurun yoki tunda paydo bo'lmaydi, lekin odatda ertalab tarqaladi. Havoning ifloslanishi Buyuk Britaniyaning qolgan qismiga nisbatan past.

Yozda kunlar uzoq bo'ladi: yozning yozida (21 iyun) tongi soat 03:00 atrofida va 23: ₩ 0 atrofida kechqurun, dengiz alacakaranlığı esa butun tun davom etadi. Ko'p quyoshli kunlar bor va ko'pincha iliq bo'lsa ham, harorat kamdan-kam 25 ° C dan oshadi (77 ° F). Yozning salqin kunlari ham bor. Ushbu quyoshli, ammo salqin kunlar bahor va kuzda ko'payadi.

Aksincha, qish kunlari qisqa bo'lib, dekabrning oxirida quyosh chiqishi bilan soat 08:30 dan kechgacha va quyosh botishi bilan soat 15:30 atrofida bo'ladi. Kunlar bir xil darajada tez-tez quyoshli va bulutli bo'ladi, lekin Shimoliy dengizdan kuchli va g'arqli shamollar tez-tez uchraydi va hatto quyoshda ham qattiq sovuq his etishi mumkin. Ko'p yillar davomida qor tez-tez uchramaydi va ko'pgina ikki hafta ichida qor yog'adi, ammo agar siz Aberdinda qishda biron bir muhim vaqtni ko'rsangiz, qor etiklaringizni oling yoki biroz sotib olishga tayyor bo'ling.

Qachon borish kerak

Eng yaxshi vaqt yoz oylariga to'g'ri keladi. Kunlar uzoq (yozgi quyosh botganda 18 soat) va ko'p kunlar issiq va quyoshli. Granit quyoshda porlaydi va kechgacha kechgacha davom etadigan (hayratlanarli darajada) ko'k osmonga nisbatan eng ta'sirchan. Festivallarning aksariyati yozda bo'lib, atrofdagi mintaqadagi diqqatga sazovor joylarni tomosha qilish uchun eng yaxshi vaqt. Shu bilan bir qatorda, bahorning oxiri va kuzning boshi ham tashrif buyurish uchun yaxshi vaqt. Aberdinda kuz, ayniqsa, ko'plab bog'larda va yashil maydonlarda chiroyli bo'lishi mumkin, ammo sovuq ob-havo va ehtimol sovuq shamollarga tayyor bo'ling. Toq raqamli yillarda (masalan, 2021), gigant sentyabr oyining boshidan saqlaning Offshore Europe neft konvensiyasi bo'lib o'tadi va mintaqadagi har bir mehmonxona xonalari bir necha oy oldin zahiraga olinadi, mehmonxonalar tovlamachilik stavkalarini oladilar. Agar siz tog 'chang'i yoki snoubord bilan shug'ullanishni xohlamasangiz, qish oylaridan saqlanish yaxshiroqdir. Ular qorong'i, sovuq va shamolli bo'lib turadi, kulrang granit esa bulutli kunlarda tushkunlikka tushishi mumkin va bu erda mehmonlar kamroq qiziqishadi.

Gapir

Shotlandiya ingliz tili - bu kundalik til. Tog'li va orollardan farqli o'laroq, Shotland galigi ("gal-lik" emas, "gae-lic" deb talaffuz qilinadi) keng tarqalgan emas va kamdan-kam eshitiladi. Ko'chada boshqa joylardan kelgan ko'plab abberdoniyaliklarning boshqa tillarni, shuningdek polyak, rus, mandarin va boshqa ko'plab Evropa tillarini tez-tez eshitib turishini eshitasiz. Biroq, mahalliy lahja deyiladi Dorik, hozirda asosan o'rta va keksa yoshdagi odamlar va quyi ijtimoiy sinf vakillari gapirishadi. Dori dastlab boshqa Shotlandiya lahjalariga qaraganda chalkashroq bo'lishi mumkin. Bunga mahalliy ingliz tilida so'zlashuvchilar ham kiradi - Shotlandiyalik aksanlar Buyuk Britaniyada va boshqa joylarda televidenie va radiolarda tez-tez eshitilsa, Aberdin aksentlari bunday emas.

Aberdindagi neft

Aberdin Buyuk Britaniyaning neft shahri va Evropaning eng muhim neft shahri bo'lsa-da, quruqlikda aslida neft qazilmaydi bu erda, shuningdek, Shimoliy dengizdan neft Aberdinda qirg'oqqa olib kelinmaydi. Buning o'rniga Aberdin Shimoliy dengiz neft sanoatining ta'minot va muhandislik bazasidir. Bu shahar neft burg'ulash brigadalari brigadalari, muhandislar, neftga xizmat ko'rsatuvchi kompaniyalar va korxonalar va boshqa xizmatlar joylashgan. Ekipajlar bu erda yoki mintaqada yashaydilar va vertolyot bilan Aberdindan Shimoliy dengiz platformalariga boradilar, kemalar portga joylashadilar va neft xizmatlarini ko'rsatuvchi yirik kompaniyalar shu erda joylashgan. Kichik operatsiyalardan tortib ko'p millatli kompaniyalargacha neft kompaniyalari uchun shartnoma asosida har xil turdagi xizmatlarni ko'rsatadigan ulkan ekotizim mavjud. Yoqilg'i quvurlari orqali Shetlanddagi Sullom Voyda (u erda tankerlarga ortilgan) va Fayfdagi Grangemutda neftni qayta ishlash zavodi mavjud.

Vaqt o'tishi bilan siz odamlar nimani anglatishini tezda bilib olasiz, bu ko'pincha kontekstdan aniq. Darhaqiqat, aksariyat odamlar boshqa joylarga o'xshash standart shotlandcha aksentda gapirishadi, bu ko'pchilik tashrif buyuruvchilarga tushunarli. Ammo, ehtimol siz Dori bilan kimdir tashqarida va ayniqsa, taksida yoki avtobusda sayohat qilayotganingizda gaplashishini eshitishingiz mumkin. Bugungi kunda ozgina yoshlar bu haqda gapirishadi yoki faqat yaqin oila a'zolari yoki boshqa Aberdoniyaliklar bilan gaplashishlari mumkin va boshqalar atrofida standart ingliz tiliga o'tish.

Bu erda tez-tez ishlatiladigan bir nechta so'z va iboralar mavjud:

  • "Yoqdimi?" - Salom, aslida "Salom, yaxshimisiz?".
  • "Nae yomon, yersel?" - "Yomon emasmi, o'zing?".
  • "Fit?" - "Nima?".
  • "Fa?" - "JSSV?".
  • "Uzoqmi?" - "Qaerda?".
  • "Muxlis?"- "Qachon?".
  • "Aya" - "Ha" (butun Shotlandiyada ishlatilganidek).
  • "Na" " - "Yo'q" (odatda, an n unli bilan birga kelgan tovush "yo'q" ni tashkil qiladi.
  • "Viy" - "Kichkina", garchi bu mashhur Dorik so'zi butun Shotlandiya va butun dunyo bo'ylab keng tarqalgan.
  • "Dinnae ken / Da ken" - "Bilmayman".
  • "Hay min" - "Kechirasiz yaxshi janob?"
  • "uzoqroqda siz fa?" qayerliksiz?
  • "ben a / eh hoose" - "Uy orqali / boshqa xonada"
  • "gie" - "berish"
  • "choy" - kechki ovqat, ya'ni kechki ovqat, shuningdek, ichimlik ma'nosida ishlatilishi mumkin.
  • "Foos yer doos?" - "Qandaysiz?" Deyishning kamroq tarqalgan usuli, so'zma-so'z "kaptarlaringiz qanday?" Ga tarjima qilingan. Doriklarning to'g'ri javobi "aye, peckin awa".

Agar siz tushunmasligingizni xushmuomalalik bilan taklif qilsangiz, deyarli barcha Dorik ma'ruzachilar siz bilan suhbatlashish uchun ko'proq standart ingliz tiliga o'tishlari mumkin, ayniqsa siz Buyuk Britaniyadan bo'lgan bo'lsangiz ham.

1 Aberdin xalqaro aeroporti (ABZ IATA) Dyce shahrida, shahar markazidan 7 mil (11 km) shimoli-g'arbda. Bu erda avtoulovlarni ijaraga olish stollari mavjud, ammo ularning zaxiralari cheklangan, eng yaxshi kitob.

Aeroport va shahar markazi o'rtasida avtobusga chiqing. The Jet 727 katta ko'k Stagecoach avtobusi, har 10-30 daqiqada temir yo'l stantsiyasi yonidagi Union maydonidagi asosiy avtovokzalga boradi. Har kuni soat 04:00 dan yarim tungacha ishlaydi, 30 min. 2019 yil boshida bitta chipta narxi 3,40 funtni, qaytish (28 kun davomida yaxshi) esa 5 funtni tashkil qiladi. 747/757-sonli avtobus aeroportdan to'g'ridan-to'g'ri Stonehaven va Montrose shaharlarigacha, shimolda Ellonga qarab, ba'zi avtobuslar Piterxedgacha davom etadi.

Dyce temir yo'l stantsiyasiga ega, ammo terminaldan uchish-qo'nish yo'lagining noto'g'ri tomoni, jamoat transporti bo'lmagan 45 daqiqalik piyoda. Siz u erga taksida borishingiz mumkin edi - buni siz shahar markaziga kirmasdan faqat shimoliy yo'nalishdagi poyezdni olib ketish uchun qilasiz. Aberdin - Inverness poezdlari Dyce, Inverurie, Insch, Huntly, Keyt, Forres va Nairnda to'xtaydi.

Shaharga taksi taxminan 20 funt turadi.

Poyezdda

Vikivoyajda qo'llanma mavjud Buyuk Britaniyada temir yo'l bilan sayohat.

Aberdin soatiga Edinburg va Glazgo qirolicha ko'chalaridan poezdlarni olib boradi, ikkalasi ham Dandi orqali 2 soat 30 min. Angliyadan odatda Edinburgda tezroq o'zgarib turadi, ammo bir necha to'g'ridan-to'g'ri kunduzgi poezdlar bor London Qirol Xoch (Peterboro, York va Nyukasl orqali) 7 soat davom etadi. Midlandsdan xuddi shu tarzda, Pensansdan Ekzeter, Bristol, Birmingem, Sheffild, Lids, York, Nyukasl va Edinburg orqali ikki-uchta poyezd harakatlanmoqda. Shuningdek, poyezdlar Invernessdan Aberdingacha har ikki soatda qatnaydilar, taxminan 2 soat davom etishdi.

Dandi-Aberdin temir yo'li 12 avgustda 2020 yil 12 avgustda Stonehaven yaqinidagi ko'chkidan va jiddiy temir yo'l halokatidan keyin yopilgan edi, ammo u noyabr oyida qayta ochildi.

(Boshqa qismlar Inverness va Fort-Uilyamga boradi; ular Edinburgda bo'linishadi yoki qo'shilishadi.) Janubiy yo'nalishdagi poezd soat 21:00 atrofida Eustonga etib borish uchun soat 21:30 atrofida yo'l oladi. Shanba kuni kechqurun poyezdlar qatnamaydi 2019 yilda barcha shpal marshrutlarida yangi harakatlanuvchi tarkib paydo bo'ldi. Bo'limlarda ikkita yotoqxona mavjud va ular mehmonxonalar xonalari singari sotiladi: bitta kishilik uchun qo'shimcha pul to'laysiz va begona odam bilan bo'lishmaysiz. Chiptalarni Buyuk Britaniyaning istalgan temir yo'l stantsiyasida yoki Internet orqali bron qilish mumkin: bitta shpal narxi bir kishining narxi 160 funtga yoki ikki kishining narxi 200 funtga teng. Bundan tashqari, faqat 50 funt sterlingga mo'ljallangan salondan foydalanishingiz mumkin. Agar sizda kunduzgi poezd uchun mavjud chiptangiz bo'lsa, shpal qo'shimchasini sotib olishingiz kerak. Narxlar dinamik - dam olish kunlari ko'proq xarajat qiladi, agar haqiqatan ham u erda yotoqxonalar mavjud bo'lsa. Rezervasyon 12 oy oldin ochiq: samolyotga chiqish uchun elektron chiptangizni chop etishingiz kerak.

2 Aberdin temir yo'l stantsiyasi shahar markazida Gildiya ko'chasida, Union ko'chasidan bir blok, avtovokzal va parom terminaliga juda yaqin joylashgan. Bu erda sayohat markazi (MF 06: 30-21: 30, soat 06: 30-19: 00, dushanba 09: 00-21: 30), chap yuk tashish vositasi (M-Sa 07: 30-21: 30, Su 09: 00-21: 00), chipta sotadigan mashinalar, bankomatlar, WH Smith do'konida kitoblar, jurnallar va gazaklarni sotadigan do'kon, kafe va hojatxonalar. Qo'shni Union Square chakana savdo majmuasida juda ko'p do'kon va tez ovqatlanish juda ko'p.

Avtobusda

Avtobuslar London Viktoriya taxminan 13 soat davom eting; ular oraliq punktlarda, masalan, Manchesterda to'planishadi, ammo marshrutlar har xil. Megabus kuniga ikkita to'g'ridan-to'g'ri avtobus va uchtasi o'zgarishi bilan (ikkitasi bir kechada). National Express har kuni bitta kunduzgi va bitta tunda to'g'ridan-to'g'ri avtobusga ega.

Edinburgdan avtobuslar 3 soat davom etadi, barchasi Dandi orqali, ammo Pertni chetlab o'tadi. Megabus G92 yakshanba kuni M-Sa-dan to'rt marta ishlaydi. Shotlandiya Citylink-da yarim o'nlab avtobuslar mavjud, shuning uchun bu soatlik xizmat.

Glazgo shahridan kelgan avtobuslar ham 3 soat davom etadi. Megabus G9-da har kuni oltita avtobus bor, asosan Pert va Dandi atroflarini aylanib o'tadi. Shotlandiya Citylink deyarli soatiga ishlaydi va Pert va Dandi shaharlarida xizmat qiladi.

Invernessdan Stagecoach avtobusiga o'ting. 10-shanba kuni faqat Aberdinga soatiga to'rt soat davom etadi. Boshqa kunlarda u faqat Inverurie shahriga, 37-avtobus bilan Aberdinga ulanadi. M-F va yakshanba kuni uchta ulanish xizmati mavjud.

Aberdin shahridan Stagecoach avtobuslari butun okrug bo'ylab chiqib ketadi, "Shaxsiy shaharlarning tafsilotlari" ga qarang.3 Aberdin avtovokzali Guild St-da, Union Square, temir yo'l stantsiyasi yonida. Shunday qilib, u erdagi barcha imkoniyatlardan foydalanishingiz mumkin, masalan. chap bagaj idorasi.

Mashinada

Dee ko'prigi janubdan shaharga asosiy yo'lni olib boradi.

Janubdan Aberdinga olib boradigan asosiy yo'l A90 bo'lib, Edinburgdan yangi Qirolichaning o'tish joyi (Forth Road ko'prigi o'rnini bosuvchi) orqali o'tib, Fife orqali Pert va Dandi chetlab o'tib, ichki Forfarga, keyin Stonehavenga, so'ng A92 ga burilib, oxirgi yo'lgacha Aberdin. Bu Dandi qadar er-xotin qatnov qismidir, undan keyin o'zgaruvchan, tezligi pastroq va Dandi qismida ko'plab tezlik kameralari mavjud. Edinburgdan 3 soat va Glazgodan 3 soat 30 hisoblang.

2019 yil fevral oyida A90 tiqilinch A92 ni yengillashtirish uchun "Aberdin G'arbiy Periferiya Yo'lining" ochilishi bilan Aberdin shahridan uzoqlashdi. Bir necha oy davomida yo'l belgilarida va Satnav yo'nalishlarida nosozliklarni kuting.

Janubdan yana bir yo'nalish - A93 shimolga Pertdan Glenshei ustidan Braemar, Balmoral va De vodiysiga boring. Yozda tabiiy, ammo qishda, Glenshei bo'limi qor bilan yopilishi mumkin bo'lgan paytda qiyin.

Shimoli-g'arbiy tomondan Ace-ni Dyce aeroporti orqali olib boring. Invernessdan to'rt soatgacha hisoblaning, chunki u bitta qatnov qismi va jamoat transportida kam bo'lgan shahar atrofidagi qishloqlarga xizmat qiladi, shuning uchun tig'iz vaqtda tirbandlik og'ir.

Castlegate shaharning asosiy jamoat maydonidir. Bu Union ko'chasining sharqiy qismida.
1980 yillarda ko'rilgan Aberdin Universitetining Qirollik kolleji talabalar shaharchasi markazida joylashgan Eski Aberdin shahridagi High Street. Bugungi manzara, mashinalardan tashqari, o'zgarmagan.

Oyoqda

Yurish - Aberdin atrofida, xususan markaziy hududlar bo'ylab sayohat qilishning ajoyib usuli, chunki shahar markazi nisbatan ixcham. Yurish ham bu shaharning buyuk me'morchiligini qadrlashning eng yaxshi usuli. Biroq, shahar emas bu kichik (masalan, Union Street bir mil uzunlikda), shuning uchun shahar markazidan tashqarida sayohat qilish uchun g'ildirakli transport foydali bo'lishi mumkin.

Aberdin Buyuk Britaniyaning ko'plab shaharlari singari o'rta asrning tartibiga ega, shuning uchun birinchi marta tashrif buyurganlar uchun xarita foydali bo'ladi. Shahar markazi atrofida, asosan, diqqatga sazovor joylarga oid belgilarda (masalan, Castlegate) juda oz sonli mavjud. Biroq, siz bilan birga olib yuradigan shahar xaritasi bo'lishi juda foydali. Xaritalarni Union Street va Shiprow burchaklaridagi Sayyohlik ma'lumot markazidan yoki shahar kitob do'konlaridan sotib olishingiz mumkin.

Avtobusda

Shahar avtobuslarining aksariyati tomonidan boshqariladi Birinchi Aberdin. Naqd pul bilan (hech qanday o'zgarishsiz), kontaktsiz bank kartasi, telefon ilovasi yoki "Grasshopper" smart-kartasi bilan to'lovni amalga oshiring. Naqd puldagi kattaroq narx kattalar uchun 2,50 funt, bola uchun 1,10 funt; telefon va Grasshopper, ayniqsa ko'p chiptalar uchun arzonroq. Grasshoppersni Union ko'chasidagi Sayohat markazida (M-Sa 09: 00-17: 00) yoki Paypoint savdo shoxobchalari joylashgan do'konlardan sotib oling.

Foydali marshrutlar janubdagi Robert Gordon universitetidan 1-chi va 2-avtobuslar, Union Square transport markazi va shimoldan Don ko'prigiga Don, Old Aberdin va Aberdin universiteti.

Stagecoach avtobuslarni Aberdinshir bo'ylab boshqa shaharlarga olib boradi, har bir shahar uchun "Kiring" variantlarini ko'ring; bu ba'zan shahar chetidagi transport uchun yaxshiroqdir.

Taksida

Taksilar shahar markazida joylashgan qator qatorlardan keng foydalanish mumkin. Asosiy saflar Back Wynd-da (markaziy Union ko'chasidan tashqarida), Hadden ko'chasida (Market Street-dan narida) va temir yo'l stantsiyasining ichida joylashgan. Chapel ko'chasida (Union Street-ning g'arbiy qismida) yana biri bor. Aberdin taksilarining aksariyati London uslubidagi qora kabinalardan ko'ra salon salonlari yoki odam tashuvchilardir va har qanday rangda bo'lishi mumkin. Taksilar va ularning haydovchilari shahar Kengashida ro'yxatdan o'tishlari va rasmiy taksilarning ro'yxatdan o'tish belgisini olib yurishlari kerak (odatda orqada). Shuningdek, istalgan manzildan sizni olib ketish uchun taksiga qo'ng'iroq qilishingiz mumkin; turli xil kompaniyalar mavjud bo'lsa-da, asosiylari ComCab da ☏ 44 1224 35 35 35 va Rainbow City kuni ☏ 44 1224 87 87 87.

Kechqurun uyga boradigan taksilar eng ommabop usuldir, shuning uchun kechasi ularga borish qiyinroq bo'lishi mumkin. Qorong'i tushgandan keyin ularni faqat Union ko'chasidagi belgilangan postlarda yollash mumkin - bular "Tungi taksi" yozilgan vertikal postdan iborat. Ehtimol siz ularni har bir Night Taxi stendida paydo bo'ladigan navbatda ko'rasiz. Gavjum dam olish kunlari kechqurunlari mast marshrutchilar orasida uzoq vaqt davomida navbatda turishga tayyor bo'linglar, bu safarlar tez-tez marshallar taksilarida qo'riqlanadi. Kechasi taksida ko'chada yurish qiyin bo'lishi mumkin, chunki ko'pchilik yollansa, ba'zilari erkaklar guruhini olib ketmasligini ko'rsatmaydi. Aberdin taksi narxlari yuqori, ammo ular har doim hisoblagich narxiga mos keladi va Aberdin shahar kengashi tomonidan tartibga solinadi.

Velosipedda

Ko'pgina tor yo'llar va chiziqlar etarli emasligi sababli, bu ba'zan xiyonat qilishi mumkin. Velosiped yo'laklari paydo bo'lmoqda (lekin ko'pincha avtobuslar bilan birgalikda) svetoforlarda velosiped "qutilari" paydo bo'ladi, shuning uchun velosipedda yuradiganlar uchun vaziyat yaxshilanmoqda. Velosipedni to'xtatish ham osonlashmoqda, endi shahar kengashi shahar markazidagi ko'chalarda (masalan, Shiprou va Qal'alar ko'chalarida) va ko'p qavatli avtoturargohlarda velosipedlarni zanjirlash uchun ko'chadan ta'minladi. Aberdin shahar kengashi shaharda velosipedda yurish haqida ma'lumotga ega veb-sahifaga ega, ammo Aberdin velosiped forumi - Aberdin ichida velosipedni rag'batlantiradigan va rivojlantiradigan ixtiyoriy guruh - shahar uchun velosiped xaritalarini ishlab chiqdilar. Ularni shahar Kengashining velosiped veb-saytidan yuklab olish mumkin (yuqoriga qarang) yoki shahardagi jamoat kutubxonalarida yoki kengash idoralarida (masalan, Broad Street-dagi Marischal kolleji) olish mumkin.

Aberdin shahrining markazidan Old Deeside temir yo'li yo'nalishi bo'yicha Peterculter shahri atrofiga velosipedda borish mumkin. "Chiziq" Duty Parkning tashqarisida boshlanadi va Station Road-da tugashdan oldin Garthdee, Cults, Bieldside va Milltimber orqali o'tadi. U asosan yo'lni kesib o'tishingiz kerak bo'lgan bir necha tanaffuslar bilan qoplangan. Yo'nalish juda chiroyli va tasalli, shuningdek itlar bilan yuradiganlar, ot minadiganlar, boshqa velosipedchilar va shunchaki sayr qilishdan zavqlanadigan odamlar foydalanadilar, shuning uchun xushmuomala bo'lish shart. Chiziq bo'ylab chiziq va qanday paydo bo'lganligi to'g'risida tarixiy qismlar qo'yilgan belgilar mavjud.

  • Granit me'morchiligi. Aberdinning granitdan yasalgan binolari Britaniyaning eng taniqli shahar manzaralaridan biri bo'lib, hamma joyda, ayniqsa shahar markazida chiroyli va me'moriy ahamiyatga ega binolar mavjud. Biroq, ba'zilari (xususan, Union ko'chasi va yaqin atrofdagi ko'chalarda) qayta tiklashga muhtoj Edinburgning yangi shahri 20-asr oxirida uning tiklanishidan oldin bo'lgan. Shunday qilib, shahar markazidagi ko'plab buyuk granitli binolar so'ngan ulug'vorlik tuyg'usiga ega, ammo ba'zilari (masalan, Marishal kolleji - pastga qarang) keskin tiklangan. Vikipediya maqolasi Aberdin arxitekturasi yaxshi kirish so'zini beradi w: Aberdin me'morchiligi ammo bu erda siz shahar markazida aylanib yurishda boshlash uchun bir nechtasi bor. Yangi tiklangan Marishal kolleji Broad Street-da shoir Jon Betjeman "minora minorasi, cho'qqilar o'rmonlari, faqat Vestminsterdagi parlament uylari bilan raqobatlashadigan saroy binolari guruhi" namoyish etadi.

The Najot armiyasi qo'rg'oni on the Castlegate is an excellent example of the Scottish Baronial style, with its fairy-tale turrets, while a walk up (and down) Union Street with its mile of impressive granite buildings is a must. As you walk along Union Street, look up; the architecture is often not visible from street-level. Unlike other grand streets in the UK (such as Grey Street in Newcastle or the Royal Crescent in Bath), but like Princes Street in Edinburgh, each building on Union Street is different to the next in stature and architectural style. You will see a wide range of architectural styles, from highly ornamented to robust and Scottish-looking. Then, on Rosemount Viaduct, the cluster of His Majesty's Theatre, St. Mark's Church and the Central Library form a widely praised trio. City bookstores and the Central Library carry books about Aberdeen's architecture, such as Aberdeen: An Illustrated Architectural Guide by W. A. Brogden (2012, 4th ed.) and The Granite Mile by Diane Morgan (2008) on the architecture of Union Street.

  • 1 Union Terrace Gardens. Closed for most of 2020 for redevelopment. A small city-centre park on one side of Union Terrace, just off Union Street. A small river, the Denburn, used to flow past here but is now covered by the railway line. Union Terrace Gardens is a rare haven of tranquility, greenery and natural beauty in the city-centre. In summer look out for the floral coat of arms, and in warm weather citizens sunbathe and picnic on the lawns. All year round, from the gardens you can appreciate some of the grand architecture on Union Terrace and Rosemount Viaduct. In winter, the park is beautiful in the snow. In 2011-12 the park was threatened with demolition to build a heavily-engineered "City Garden" as a new civic heart for the city, sponsored by local oil tycoon Sir Ian Wood who offered £50 million of his own money to part-finance the scheme. The project was extremely controversial but citizens voted narrowly in favour of the redevelopment in a referendum. However, following the 2012 elections to the city council the new city administration scrapped the controversial project. New plans were approved in 2018, and work started in late 2019.

  • 2 Aberdeen Beach. Aberdeen's long sandy beach once made it something of a holiday resort, advertised by railway travel posters (that you may see at the Tourist Information Centre on Union Street). The beach stretches from picturesque Footdee (see below) at one end to the mouth of the River Don over 2 miles (3.2 km) north. While it's rarely hot enough for sunbathing and the North Sea is cold all year round, it's a fantastic place for a jog or a bracing walk. Surfers and windsurfers are also frequently to be found there. On sunny days, the beach is a popular place to spend time and one of the best spots in the city for a romantic walk. Amenities at the southern end include an amusement park, ice arena, leisure centre and leisure park with restaurants and cinema.

  • 3 Footdee (usually pronounced "Fitty"). A former fishing village absorbed by the city, in the streets around Pocra Quay. It is at what was once the foot of the River Dee (hence the name) before the course of the river was artificially diverted to improve the harbour. This area is a laid-back cluster of traditional, small, quaint houses and quirky outhouses, and the area was specially constructed in the 19th century to house a fishing community. Footdee sits at the harbour mouth, where dolphins can often be seen. Vikidatadagi Footdee (Q3747847) Vikipediyada oyoq kiyimi (yangilangan sentyabr 2015)
  • 4 Old Aberdeen. The quaintest part of the city and location of the University of Aberdeen's King's College Campus, along the High Street and the streets leading off it, with modern university buildings further from it. The Chapel and Crown Tower at Kings College date from the 16th century (the tower is a symbol of the city and of the university), while many of the other houses and buildings on the High Street and nearby are centuries old. The university's Kings Museum (M-F 09:00-17:00, free) a little way up the High Street puts on rotating displays from the university's collections. The new University Library (looks like a glass cube with zebra stripes) has a gallery space open every day with rotating exhibitions (free; check website for opening times), and you can explore the library (it's open to the public) which has outstanding views of the whole city and sea from the upper floors. The Old Town House at the top of the High Street (looks like it's in the middle of the roadway) has a visitor centre with leaflets on the area's heritage and rotating exhibitions. You can also explore the scenic and serene Cruickshank Botanic Garden which belongs to the university and is used for teaching and research, and is open to the public. The nearby St. Machar's Cathedral on the Chanonry (a continuation of the High Street) with its two spires, was completed in 1530 and is steeped in history and worth a visit (Aberdeen has three cathedrals, all named after saints). As it is part of the Protestant Church of Scotland, it does not actually function as a cathedral but is always called this. To get to Old Aberdeen, bus route No.20 from Broad Street takes you right there - get off at the High Street. Alternatively take No.1 or No.2 from Union Street and get off on King Street at the university campus (by the playing fields). Vikidatadagi eski Aberdin (Q3350171) Vikipediyada eski Aberdin

Aberdeen Maritime Museum, Shiprow
  • 8 Aberdeen Maritime Museum, Shiprow, ☏ 44 1224 337700, ✉. Tu-Sa 10:00-17:00, Su 12:00-15:00. This museum, rated 5-star by the Scottish Tourist Board, tells the story of Aberdeen's relationship with the sea, from fishing to trade to North Sea oil. It offers an extraordinary insight into the mechanics and technology of ships and oil rigs, Aberdeen's rich maritime history and the lives of some of the people who have worked offshore in the North Sea for the past 500 years. The newest part of the complex is a blue, glass-fronted building on the cobbled Shiprow. Inside is a spiral walkway, rising upwards around an eye-catching model of an oil rig. Connected to this structure are the much older buildings which take visitors through a series of castle-style corridors and staircases to reach the numerous room sets, historical artefacts and scale models. If your time in Aberdeen is limited, go and see this. There is so much to see, and even the buildings themselves are worth a look. There is also a restaurant - slightly expensive, but the food is pretty good. There are excellent views of the harbour from the top floor. Admission free.

In Scottish towns and cities, a "tolbooth" was the main municipal building or Town Hall, providing council meeting space, a courthouse and jail. Aberdeen's Tolbooth Museum is in a 17th-century tolbooth which had housed jail cells in centuries past, and played a key role in the city's history, including the Jacobite rebellions. The museum has fascinating displays on crime and punishment, and on the history of the city. The entrance is at the Town House (the modern equivalent of the Tolbooth!), just along from the Sheriff Court entrance and next to the bus stop.

Frequently, students and university staff contribute to events at the museum to add extra insight or bring the artifacts to life and there are evening lectures. While on campus, you can also visit the gallery at the university's impressive new Sir Duncan Rice Library (which looks like a zebra-striped tower that you'll see from all over campus), which puts on rotating exhibitions from the university's other collections.

Golf

Royal Aberdeen Golf Clubhouse

Scotland is the country that gave birth to golf, and excellent courses are provided not only for citizens by the City Council but by various private organisations. The Royal Aberdeen golf course was founded in 1790 and is the sixth oldest in the world, and the Royal Deeside course in the River Dee's valley are both excellent. You can also play golf at a number of public golf courses in the city, most notably at Hazlehead Park which has two 18-hole courses and at Queen's Links by the Beach (entrance on Golf Road).

The inland nine returns south over the flatter plateau. A traditional old Scottish links, it is well-bunkered with undulating fairways. It has an excellent balance of holes, strong par 4's, tricky par 3's and two classic par 5's, with the 8th (signature hole) protected by nine bunkers. The ever-changing wind, tight-protected greens and a magnificent finish makes Balgownie a test for the very best. It was highly praised by participants in the 2005 Senior British Open. The eminent golf writer Sam McKinlay was moved to say "There are few courses in these islands with a better, more testing, more picturesque outward nine than Balgownie".

University of Aberdeen - Sir Duncan Rice Library
  • 12 University of Aberdeen, Kings College, Aberdeen, AB24 3FX, ☏ 44 1224 272000. One of the oldest universities in the UK (founded 1495), it is renowned for its teaching and research in a full range of disciplines including the liberal arts, sciences, social sciences and the professions. Until the University of the Highlands and Islands was created in 2011 with its centre at Inverness, Aberdeen was the most northerly university in the UK (the Robert Gordon University, also in the city, is a little way south of the University of Aberdeen). It is a research-focused university of about 15,000 students, most at its main Kings College campus in Old Aberdeen, but some at its Medical School at Foresterhill. The Medical School is prestigious and the centre of a great deal of research, and is where (for example) the MRI scanner was developed. The university's iconic buildings, Marischal College (in the city centre but now occupied by Aberdeen City Council) and the tower of Kings College, are also iconic images of the city of Aberdeen. A huge new library was opened in 2011 at the Kings College campus. It is of unusual architecture for Aberdeen, taking the form of a seven-story zebra-striped tower. the Sir Duncan Rice Library is open to the public and outstanding views are available from the upper floors; ID is needed to sign in.

The word "The" is officially part of the title. It has a suburban campus at Garthdee in the south-west of the city by the banks of the River Dee, known for its modern architecture by major architects such as Norman Foster and Associates. A campus in the city centre was operated also but it has transferred to the main Garthdee campus, although the university still owns its Administration Building on the Schoolhill, next to the Art Gallery (designed to match it for the building used to be a school of art). RGU has been rising rapidly in university rankings and was named Best Modern University in the UK for 2012 by the Sunday Times, and equivalent standings in 2013, in addition to other recent awards. It is a teaching-focused university of about 15,500 students but significant research is also conducted (but not as much as the University of Aberdeen).

Rosemount Viaduct
Regent Quay, Aberdeen
Union Square shopping centre, at Guild Street

Aberdeen is the shopping capital of the north of Scotland, drawing shoppers from the entire region. Many Aberdonians have money to spend due to the oil industry. As there are no other nearby cities, there are a large number and quality of stores in the city for its size. For many decades, the main shopping street was Union Street, which rivalled the most prestigious streets in Britain. Today, Union Street is still considered the spiritual heart of shopping in Aberdeen and contains many shops, but primarily chain stores found in high streets all over the UK. A walk up and down Union Street is essential for any first visit to Aberdeen. The dramatic architecture, although now mostly in need of restoration, is not visible in storefronts at street level - look up to see the impressive carved granite and grand designs of each building. Sidewalks on the street get very busy during the day and especially on weekends.

More upmarket stores have been gravitating from Union Street and other streets to the shopping malls in the city centre, and independent stores to the streets around Union Street. At the same time, some shops on Union Street have been moving downmarket. As a result, shopping in Aberdeen is spread out around Union Street, these malls, and surrounding streets. The shopping malls are extremely popular with Aberdonians. They include the Bon Accord Centre (entrances on Upperkirkgate and George Street), the St. Nicholas Centre (entrances on Upperkirkgate and St. Nicholas Square), the Trinity Centre (entrances on Union Street and Guild Street), The Academy (entrance on Schoolhill, specialises in boutique shops), and the newest and largest, Union Square on Guild Street. Today, nearly all the stores found on British high streets can be found in Aberdeen at these malls, on Union Street or a surrounding street. Most shops open at 09:00 and close at 17:00 or 18:00. Late-night shopping (till 20:00) is on Thursdays in Aberdeen, except Union Square where shops are open till 20:00 every weeknight.

Aberdeen has a large collection of small, tucked-away shops which can provide everything from Bohemian dressware to Indian furniture. Good streets to find independent stores in the city centre are Rosemount Viaduct, Holburn Street, Rose Street, Chapel Street, Belmont Street, Upperkirkgate and The Green, along with Rosemount Place in the Rosemount area (to the north of the city centre).

Markets

There are few outdoor markets in Aberdeen aside from irregular international and Christmas markets which are organised every so often, typically on Union Terrace. There is also a less prestigious market on the Castlegate every Friday morning, selling general items.

The Farmers Market is held here last Saturday of the month 09:00-17:00 on Belmont Street.

You may walk past the Aberdeen Market building on Market Street. Aberdeen once had a grand and prestigious indoor market similar to (if not as big as) those in other cities such as the Grainger Market in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and the St. Nicholas Markets in Bristol but it was demolished in the 1980s and replaced by this. The current modern building provides an indoor market which offers permanent space to small stallholders providing retail, food or other services. Most of the units inside are small shop-like enclosures, and the low rents provide a chance for small start-ups and local entrepreneurs to get a foothold while building up their business, before moving to more established areas of the city-centre. Although it appears downmarket, footfall is quite high and you may encounter hidden gems! For example, amazing sushi was available at a stall here, until the proprietor's success here enabled him to open his own restaurant on Huntly Street (further up Union Street).

Supermarkets and food stores

Former General Post Office on Crown Street, now converted to upmarket apartments

If you are looking for food (e.g. if staying in one of the aparthotels or walking round the city has made you hungry), or general items such as toothpaste, these are good places to go. Aberdonians buy much or all their food and everyday items at supermarkets, of which there are many in the city, but the largest ones tend to be in suburbs or on the outskirts. However, there are also some in the city centre or close to the centre. Most city supermarkets are open till 21:00 or later every night. If you have a car, the Tesco Extra hypermarket at Laurel Drive, Danestone and Asda superstore at the Bridge of Dee roundabout are open 24-hours. Some of the useful, more central stores are as follows:

  • The Co-operative, Union Street, small supermarket in the city centre that offers most everyday items. Union Street store is just past the Music Hall and is open daily 06:00-23:00 every day.
  • Marks & Spencer, St. Nicholas Square/St. Nicholas Centre (opens 09:00, closes M-W 18:00, Th 20:00, F Sa 21:00) and another at Union Square (M-Sa 08:00-20:00; Su 10:00-18:00), upmarket supermarkets.
  • Morrisons, King Street, larger supermarket popular with students (M-Sa 08:00-22:00; Su 09:00-20:00)
  • Asda, Beach Retail Park, behind funfair, large supermarket useful if you are in the beach area (daily 08:00-20:00) and another at Garthdee Road by the Bridge of Dee roundabout, very large supermarket (open 24 hours).

The Co-operative, Sainsbury's Local va Tesco Express mini-supermarkets or convenience stores can be found in the city centre and around. These are all open from early till late (usually 23:00). Useful such stores include Sainsbury's Local stores on Upperkirkgate/St. Nicholas Centre, Rosemount Place, and on Holburn Street; a Tesco Express store at the western end of Union Street and another on Holburn Street; and numerous small Co-Operative stores such as the west end of Union Street, Rosemount Place and in numerous suburbs. If hungry late at night, there is a 24-hour convenience store on Market Street.

Yemoq

Aberdeen butteries or rowies

A local specialty is the Aberdeen buttery yoki rowie, a cross between a pancake and a croissant. They have a flaky yet heavy texture and are very salty. They're served plain or with butter or jam to make a tea-time or mid-afternoon snack. They're seldom found in cafes or restaurants, you buy them in bakeries or supermarkets to eat at home or on the go.

Ichish

Archibald Simpson Bar, Castle Street

Like any Scottish city Aberdeen has a large number of bars and nightclubs. The role of alcohol in Scottish culture is frequently debated but for better or worse, heavy drinking is a feature of nights out for many in Scotland, especially on weekend nights. However, this is less pronounced in suburban establishments and those outside the city-centre or catering to an older clientele. Aberdeen is a city with a large number of young people (including students and young professionals) and people of all ages who like to go out. As a result, while not on the same level as Glasgow, nights out are often lively - much livelier than many visitors would expect. Especially on weekend nights, the city centre is full of revellers, even in the most severe winter weather (Aberdonians, like those in Newcastle, often do not dress for a night out according to the weather).

There are hundreds of licensed premises in the city that cater for every taste, from upmarket bars, to more casual bars, and a wide range of pubs. There are also numerous clubs, some very good (e.g. Snafu on Union Street opposite the Town House). Due to the large student population there are often student deals around. These may be extended to everyone and not just those with student ID cards. If you plan to go to a club, bring photographic ID showing your date of birth as this is often demanded by doormen - a photocard driving licence or passport is effective. Remember that smoking is illegal inside public venues - you will notice crowds of smokers standing outside even in freezing conditions. This has also led to the trend of installing/ re-opening Beer Gardens that are now constantly full of smokers.

The usual and most approachable starting point for a night out is Belmont Street. It is home to numerous bars and nightclubs. Union Street and to a lesser extent Langstane Place and Bon Accord Street (off Union Street) are also destinations for a night out due to their numerous venues.

Bundan tashqari, tobora ko'payib borayotgan apart-mehmonxonalar va o'z-o'zidan ovqatlanish uchun kvartiralar mavjud. Byudjetli turar joy uchun kechasi 70 funt sterling yoki undan kamrog'ini, kechasi esa 150 funtdan ziyodni, o'rtada esa o'rta masofani rejalashtiring.

O'rta darajadagi mehmonxonalarda tez-tez maxsus takliflar mavjud bo'lib, ular narxni sezilarli darajada pasaytiradi, shuning uchun veb-saytlarini oldindan tekshirib ko'ring, sizning turar joyingizda taklif yoqiladimi yoki yo'qligini bilib oling. G'alati yillarda (masalan, 2017, 2019) sentyabr oyining o'rtalaridan o'rtalariga qadar gigant Offshore Europe neft sanoati anjumani shahar va uning atrofidagi shaharlarning barcha mehmonxonalar joylari bilan jihozlangan. Agar "mehmonxonada joy yo'q" stsenariysiga duch kelishni istamasangiz, anjuman bilan bir vaqtda tashrif buyurishdan saqlaning.

Xavfsiz bo'ling

"Girdleness Lighthouse" Aberdin Makoni kirishiga yaqin joyda joylashgan va kemani toshli qirg'oqda halok bo'lishdan himoya qiladi, chunki 1813 yilda kitlar kemasi halokatga uchragan.

Aberdin Buyuk Britaniyaning eng xavfsiz yoki xavfsiz shaharlari orasida baholandi, jinoyatchilik darajasi mamlakatning qolgan qismidan past. Aberdin shahrida, ayniqsa Buyuk Britaniyaning boshqa shaharlari bilan taqqoslaganda, jinoyatchilarni boshdan kechirish juda g'alati London. Biroq, foydalaning umumiy ma'noda. Erkak yoki ayol bo'lsin, mahrum bo'lgan joylar bo'ylab yurishdan saqlaning masalan, Tillydrone (Bedford Road shimolida va Sankt Machar Drive-dan sharqda) va Torri (Dining daryosining janubiy sohilida) kabi jinoyatlar darajasi ancha yuqori. Shuningdek, tunda Dee daryosining janubida yolg'iz yurishdan saqlaning chunki bu erda muggslar va hujumlar ommaviy axborot vositalarida tez-tez xabar qilinadi.

Ko'cha tilanchilari ba'zan shaharning markazida ishlaydi, ammo nisbatan zararsizdir. Aberdin tilanchilar tajovuzkor emaslar va ular yo'lovchilardan tartibsiz zaxira almashtirishni so'rashganda, ularni e'tiborsiz qoldirish mumkin. Aberdin port shahri va fohishabozlik port hududidagi ma'lum ko'chalarda sodir bo'ladi. Fohishalar har doim ham provokatsion tarzda kiyinishmaydi va erkaklar o'tib ketayotganlarga "Siz ish qidiryapsizmi?" Deb murojaat qilishlari mumkin. Fohishani jalb qilmang, chunki bu noqonuniy.

Muammoning asosiy ehtimoli bilan alkogol bilan bog'liq tajovuz tunda (ayniqsa, dam olish kunlari kechalari). Shotlandiyaliklar ozgina buni tan olishsa-da, ko'pchilik spirtli ichimliklar kabi da'vo qiladigan darajada ishlay olmaydi va kechalari ko'pchilik (erkaklar ham, ayollar ham) o'zlari eplay oladigan narsadan ko'proq ichishadi. Dam olish kunlari tunda jamoat ichkilikbozligi, Buyuk Britaniyada bo'lgani kabi, dolzarbdir. Natijada, janjal, tajovuz va suiiste'mol (masalan, irqchi yoki gomofob til) kamdan-kam uchraydi va hafta oxiri tunda politsiyaning katta ishtiroki mavjud. Muammolarga yo'l qo'ymaslik uchun, avvalo o'zingizga yarasha ko'proq ichishdan saqlaning. Janjal chiqmaslik, erkaklar guruhi bilan ko'z tutish yoki mast odamlarga tikilib qolishdan saqlaning. Agar siz Angliyadan bo'lsangiz, Sankt-Jorj xoch yoki Angliya sport to'plamlarini kiyish kabi ingliz ramziy belgilaridan saqlaning, chunki bu sizni yoki sizning guruhingizni jang qilish uchun bahona izlayotgan tajovuzkor mastlar uchun nishonga aylantirishi mumkin. Shuningdek, ichimlikni shahar barlari va klublarida bosish haqida biling; begona odamga siz uchun ichimlik sotib olishiga yoki stakaningizni ko'zingizdan olib qo'yishiga yo'l qo'ymang.
