2 reviews of Perth

Spectacular city

The city of Perth is called "The Gates of the Highlands" because it is the largest city that is located between the Lowlands and the Highland. As soon as you set foot outside of Perth (northbound), you can say that you are at the famous Highlands. With the exception of the larger cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh, the city of Perth represents the average Scottish city, with about 50,000 residents. While some visitors may think that is small, but ever since medieval times, Perth has been called "royal burgh" and should be be known as a city. It is the capital of the district of Perthshire (although it was founded much earlier in time of the Picts, the oldest tribe settled in Scotland).


It is located on the banks of the River Tay, one of the major rivers of the country. During the summer, this area becomes very colorful and filled with flowers. It provides beautiful views, lots of greenery, stunning parks (where people to to practice golf, despite the fact that it is not a golf field) and pretty nice people. The historic center is around the old town hall and church of San Juan (St. John's Kirk), two of the most emblematic buildings of the city.

It may be one of the least visited cities in the country, (I'm not sure why) although the summer courses offered by Perth College are among the best in quality and price. Fortunately for me, I lived there for a little while, and I can say it is a particularly welcoming city and will surely surprise many who visit. It has a great balance of party atmosphere and tranquility. For those who enjoy an excellent shopping center, for me it is a special place and I often go shopping, have a drink, eat or just to stroll through its streets.
