Perth (Scotland) Attractions & Activities - The Best Holiday Destinations for 2020
Perth is the largest town (and county seat) in Perthshire, Scotland, which lies on the banks of River Tay. Perth is popularly referred to as The Fair City, although per a redefinition of city status in the United Kingdom, it is no longer officially classed as a city , one of only three towns in the UK to have been declassified.
The history of Perth goes back over 800 years when it was originally founded as Saint John's Town - the name is still used for the Perth's professional football (soccer) team St. Johnstone - and the adjoining town of Scone was a former capital city of Scotland. Today it is perhaps best known for giving its name to the Western Australian city of Perth.
