A new tourism campaign has been launched to encourage people to visit the north-east region after coronavirus restrictions are relaxed.
VisitAberdeenshire launched the ‘Our Aberdeen is Your Aberdeen’ initiative this week to promote the city to potential visitors from other places in Scotland and from the north of England.
Local residents, as well as Lord Provost of Aberdeen Barney Crockett, have been starred in a video speaking about all the region has to offer.
A range of landmarks have been selected to show the diversity of attractions available for visitors, such as Aberdeen Art Gallery to the beach and Kirkhill Forest.
