In the last 30 years, Glasgow has undergone a renaissance to become one of the most dynamic cities in Europe, reinventing itself as a forward-looking creative powerhouse.
Modern architecture has jazzed up the city’s well preserved Victorian foundations; a revived waterfront district complements Glasgow’s leafy parks, bohemian West End and a shopping quarter – the Style Mile – to rival London’s retail delights. The King’s Theatre, Hunterian Museum and Gallery and the Burrell art collection are some of the cultural highlights of a city that is also honoured as a Unesco City of Music.
Scotland’s cuisine has earned itself a whole new reputation in Glasgow, where fine dining establishments focused on traditional local food sit alongside some of the UK’s most admired Indian restaurants and top-notch comfort dishes.
