The Den and the Glen

Aberdeenshire, United Kingdom

The Den and the Glen (formerly known as Storybook Glen) is a children's park in Maryculter, Scotland, near the city of Aberdeen, which opened in 1984. The park features outdoor play areas and sculptural displays depicting characters from fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and popular children’s television and film franchises. A statue of Barney the Dinosaur became the subject of an internet meme in the late 2010s. The site also includes painted murals and cut-out boards based on well-known fictional characters.
