Glasgow is an electric and eclectic city, where Victorian architecture rubs shoulders with brutalist concrete, and traditional Celtic culture thrives alongside a thriving nightlife. It’s a city that has something for everyone, from world-class museums and art galleries to a vibrant music and nightlife scene. The city centre is compact and easy to explore on foot, with a lively mix of high-street stores and independent boutiques. The Merchant City is the go-to place for shopping, with a range of designer labels and independent stores. For a more traditional Glasgow shopping experience, head to the Barras, a weekend market where you can find everything from second-hand clothes to Scottish produce. When it comes to food, Glasgow is a city of contrasts. You can enjoy a Michelin-starred meal or tuck into a traditional Scottish fry-up, and there’s something to suit every taste and budget.

Whiskey, shipbuilding, and The Clockwork Orange.What people say about Glasgow
There is so much to discover in Glasgow! It's Scotland's largest city and it really packs a punch. It often gets a bad rap because it doesn't have a castle like several other Scottish cities and some people still believe it's a dangerous city. However, I have never felt unsafe in Glasgow and I've spent extensive time exploring it. It may not have a castle, but it has a lot more to offer. Iconic museums like the beautiful Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum and the quirky GoMA where you'll able to see the symbol of Glasgow: a statue of the 1st Duke of Wellington riding a horse... that is constantly sporting a bright orange traffic cone on its head. This is the humor of Glasgow and I love it!
