Duthie Park, Urban park in Aberdeen, Scotland.
Duthie Park covers 44 acres (18 hectares) of maintained grounds featuring seasonal flower displays, mature tree collections, play areas for children, boating ponds, and sports fields available for football and tennis activities throughout the year.
The park opened to the public on September 27, 1883, following a generous donation from Miss Elizabeth Crombie Duthie in 1880, who intended to provide Aberdeen residents with accessible green space for health and recreation purposes.
The park hosts annual community events including outdoor concerts, flower shows, and a Christmas carol concert held inside the Winter Gardens, which serves as a popular venue for local weddings and social gatherings throughout the year.
Duthie Park is located on Polmuir Road south of Aberdeen city center and offers free admission, with on-site parking facilities, public transport connections, a café, children's play areas, and restrooms available for visitors daily.
The David Welch Winter Gardens within the park is one of Europe's largest indoor gardens, housing extensive collections of tropical and subtropical plants in climate-controlled glasshouses that remain open year-round regardless of outdoor weather conditions.
