Perth
The
city of Perth or the "Fair City" as it is also known is relatively small compared to
some other cities in Scotland but it makes up for this in the quality of the shops, restaurants,
buildings and parks. The main high street and some roads off are pedestrianised allowing shoppers
to wander freely. Here you can find all your main high street shops and some that are a bit more
unusual. When the shopping is getting too much for you there are a good range of cafes and restaurants
including the well known Costa And Cafe Nero. There is an abundance of car parking facilities
nearby.
Perth
Theatre sits at the start of High Street and within a short distance you will also find Perth
Concert Hall, Perth
Museum and Art Gallery, Fergusson
Gallery, AK
Bell Library and the Playhouse
Cinema.
On
the outskirts of Perth you can visit the famous Scone
Palace where the kings and queens of Scotland were once crowned. If you are feeling lucky
you can also visit Perth Racecourse which
is situated near Scone. If you want to venture slightly further afield you can tour the beautiful
area to the north of Perth known as Highland
Perthshire. Here you will find an abundance of mountains, hills, glens, rivers, waterfalls
and lochs to satisfy all levels of walkers and tourists. Be sure to have a camera with you!
