Question 1

What's Glasgow famous for?

Accepted Answer

Glasgow is famous for quite a bit! It's the largest city in Scotland, so it's got a lot to offer when it comes to Scottish history and culture. . It may be primarily known now for its friendly locals and proximity to the highlands, but if you spend some time here, you'll find that the city is bursting with great food, fine art, and fine impressive architecture. Glasgow City Chambers has more marble inside than the Vatican, whilst the opulent Royal Exchange Building was originally a townhouse for a prominent local lord.

It's not all about history in Scotland's second city, as there's fun to be had as well. It has become a cosmopolitan centre with great music and comedy venues, with fashionable bars and restaurants nestled in charming historic streets.

Question 2

What's Glasgow's nickname?

Accepted Answer

Glasgow is known as "the dear green place", which is taken as the translation of the Gaelic term Glas Chu. Whilst the bright lights of the city's modern streets have replaced the rolling fields and forests of years gone by, there are still plenty of green spaces for families to enjoy, making its nickname relevant, even today.

Question 3

Is Glasgow a cheap city?

Accepted Answer

As a cost-effective break, Glasgow certainly hits the mark as it was named the world's second-most affordable city by Time Out in 2022. That means your money will go a lot further, allowing you to enjoy the best restaurants and bars but have some left over for the street vendors and modern shops that line Buchanan Street.

Question 4

What are some of the top free things to do in Glasgow?

Accepted Answer

Even with the low costs in Glasgow, you may still wish to take in some free attractions, and fear not, as the city has plenty. The Burrell Collection is a literal treasure trove with more than 9,000 works of art for you to take in, and it's free. It's in Pollock Country Park, so be sure to spend some time exploring Glasgow's largest park after your visit to the museum.

If green is your thing, you can also step into the past and visit the Victorian glasshouse without splashing out. Home to exotic tree ferns, rare orchids and begonias, the attraction is open all year round.

It's completely free to stroll around the city, and Glasgow is a perfect place to mooch. For a real treat, head to Ashton Lane, where the cobbled paving gives strong Harry Potter vibes.

Question 5

What cities have direct flights to Glasgow?

Accepted Answer

easyJet operates flights from several airports in the UK, including London Stansted, London Luton, and London Gatwick. If you're in the Midlands, you can find flights departing from Birmingham. Belfast also has convenient flight options, and Southampton is another departure point to consider.

Question 6

How do you get to central Glasgow from the airport?

Accepted Answer

Several shuttle bus services operate between Glasgow Airport and the city centre, with the Glasgow Airport Express service being the most popular option. McGill's 757 service also offers public transport coverage to and from the airport.
