|  | It is good friends that have drawn us to Aberdeen and in those visits we have learned that the region has much more to offer than being the jumping off point for the Northsea oilfields.

On my husband's last visit he was treated to the Lonach as well as a variety of stone circle sites! |
Stone Circles and more The region in the Grampian Highlands contains many ancient sites, including stone circles such as this Daviot cemetary circle.

The Highland Games would be a great time to visit Aberdeen, though probably every other visitor has the same idea. It's amazing the stone circles survived the centuries. | globetrott Tue Mar 15, 2005 07:21 UTC
