Dundee, Scotland Attractions
|
|
The fourth-largest city in Scotland spreads along the north bank of the Firth of Tay at the foot of Balgary Hill (480ft/145m) and Law (571ft/174m). Jute, jam and journalism were the three trades that for many years brought prosperity to the town. The jute factories and weaving mills have now closed (and also many of the shipyards), most of the printing presses have disappeared and production of the highly-prized jam has declined. Their places have been taken by service industries. Modern technology parks and a host of small and medium-sized companies working in synthetic fibers, biotechnology, precision engineering and instrument making are testimony to how Dundee has adapted to a new post-industrial economic structure.
