Even when the weather is wet, this place has something to offer all ages. The winter gardens are absolute delight, with the talking cactus being one of the major highlights.

I live here now and of all the parks in Deen, found Duthie the best place for kids to run and play and tourists to enjoy the winter gardens or the cafe or the rare sun. Go there all the time.. More

I love botanical gardens, and was surprised to learn there was one in Aberdeen! Lots of neat plants, very well kept, nice recluse from the cold, windiness of outside. The coolest part was the carnivorous plant section. More
