Aberdeen is Scotland's largest city and is located in most eastern part of Scotland, right on the coast.
The city has a large population of over 200,000 and is a very popular place to live and work these days.
The city has come to acquire a few nicknames such as The Granite City and Silver City because of the granite quarries that used to be in abundance.
Thanks to a quirk of nature, Aberdeen has a much milder climate than the rest of Scotland - good news for the late night clubber! Aberdeen has a good night life scene which is growing each month.
Aberdeen is relatively quiet during the daytime and it's only when evening comes that the real Aberdeen nightlife begins.
There are several Aberdeen gay bars and clubs but there are also a few gay friendly bars and clubs all of which can be found a short distance from the city center.
Among the most popular hang outs in Aberdeen are the Cheerz Bar and club on Exchange Street, Club Foundation on Carnegies Brae, the Market Arms on Hadden Street and Wellman's Health Studio which offers jacuzzi, sauna, steamroom, cafe and more on Holborn Street.
For a night out in Aberdeen, the many gay friendly and exclusively gay bars and clubs make it great for entertaining or for just simply meeting friends for a good night out.
The clubs and bars can be quiet during the day so if you prefer that then you should head down to the town quite early.
