Dundee: Attractions and more...
The Broughty Castle houses a museum displaying a range of relics from this region, depicting the history and life of Dundee as a seaside town; it is also ideal for the beautiful views of the bay. Dundee Law, an extinct volcano just outside the city, has an observation deck which gives a panoramic view of the city and its surrounding area.
The RRS Discovery, which is now docked here, has been restored in all its former glory. Several exhibits and shows display the history and achievements of this historic vessel. The HMS Unicorn is another interesting vessel; a former warship, it has been preserved in its original form and contains relics depicting early naval life.
St. Andrews, the town which is home to the oldest university in Scotland, makes for a good one-day trip from Dundee. It is also the ‘Home of Golf’ and has one of the oldest golf courses in the world.
