Mercat Cross

Nice square to visit in Aberdeen. Definitely it is one of the many places which worth to visit. This medieval market cross symbol of Aberdeen's right to hold a market was built in 1686 by the city's guild of merchants when it became a Burgh of Barony. Another points of interest nearby are Gordon Highlander statue and St. Andrew's Cathedral. A lot of pubs and a big shopping mall is very next to this square. You can say this is Aberdeen Trafalgar Square.

Beautiful stonework. Love the history too.

What a places to visit in Aberdeen, definitely it was one of the many awesome places i saw. This elaborate and highly decorated medieval symbol of Aberdeen's right to hold a market was built in 1686 by the city's guild of merchants. Another interesting nearby landmark is St. Andrew's Cathedral. And be sure to also take a stroll down Union Street, Aberdeen's busy main street. it's a bustling street with plenty of shops, cafés, and shopping arcades. Highly recommended to visit.

Wow! What a place to see. If you ever go to Aberdeen, never miss this place. And don't forget to click some photos there. Birds I think pigeons there add to its pleasant beauty of this place. Its unique, hence never miss.

It's a nice cozy place to hangout with in reach of the city centre i enjoy sitting on the benches provided it feels very calm and silent.

Mercat Cross Aberdeen is a historic 17th-century market cross in Castlegate, symbolizing the city’s medieval trading and civic heritage.

Unfortunately it appears as an almost abandoned square. Lifeless, all venues closed and spaces vacant. Nevertheless, the square and its buildings are indeed beautiful

Nice peace of history
