Union Terrace Gardens
This is a one-hectare park and is located right in the heart of the city, to one side of Union Terrace, off the city’s main thoroughfare of Union Street. It is a natural amphitheatre and used for occasional concerts and leisure activities as well as providing an oasis for relaxation in the city centre. On the north side is a magnificent floral crest depicting the city's coat of arms. At the Union Street end of the gardens a group of mature elms, approximately 200 years old, are a remnant of a site known as Corbie Woods. ‘Corbie’ is the traditional Scots word for ‘crow’, and indeed crows nest there to this day.Is your park the pits or the place to be? Is it litter-strewn or litter-free? Do you love it or loathe it? Now's the time to have your say....Visit GreenSTAT to submit your views on our parks.
