Choses à faire à Glasgow

We came here on a spontaneous visit one Sunday afternoon in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our wee boy loved seeing the “old fashioned house” and was so well looked after by all the staff, from the cash register to the flat and back out again.We went round twice (with a shift change between visits!) and the insight into one story of no doubt thousands like it in Glasgow was fantastic. Plus our boy thoroughly enjoyed colouring in his wallie dug. A hidden gem that is well worth the wander through Garnethill.

University of Glassgow has a large and hilly campus, be prepared to do quite a bit of walking. The main campus building is partly open to the public so please be prepared to explore this unique spot and take a lot of photos! The buildings all look so dreamy in the autumn lights.

隐藏式的花园，可探寻的也真不少。

Glasgow Cathedral is one of Scotland’s most remarkable historic landmarks and a masterpiece of medieval architecture. The cathedral’s impressive Gothic design, stunning stained-glass windows, and peaceful atmosphere make it a fascinating place to explore. Walking through its ancient halls offers a glimpse into centuries of Scottish history and religious heritage. I was particularly impressed by the intricate stonework and the beautiful crypt beneath the cathedral. Located near the city center, it provides a quiet contrast to Glasgow’s vibrant urban life. Whether you are interested in history, architecture, or culture, Glasgow Cathedral is a must-visit attraction in Scotland.

 visited (my oldest grandson who is 6 and myself) on a Saturday. The museum is fairly well sign-posted and there is plenty of on-site parking. The car park was about half full so the museum was busy. Parking is £1.60 per hour but entry to the museum (and the adjacent Tall Ship) is free.Mask- wearing is compulsory though compliance was patchy. About 20% didn’t bother at all which is poor is an indoor environment with lots of kids.

Absolutely fabulous attraction in the heart of Glasgow's West End. The surrounding grounds are lushly verdant, a lovely wee coffee stall. Benches around the to soak of the fresh air & admire the beautiful gardens. A must see is Kibble Palace in the grounds with more tropical plants & fish and stunning sculptures under a beautiful glass roof.

Worth the visit. It’s well maintained and easy to navigate. Don’t go to Edinburgh and not visit the castle. The 1 pm cannon shot is quite fun to watch.

This is an imposing looking palace and a lovely winter garden.Unfortunately, the place was totally deserted when we visited it during the afternoon, so we could only appreciate the architecture from the outside.

The city chambers are a lovely building in the otherwise unimpressive George square in central Glasgow
