This cathedral is beautiful! Gigantic and majestic, looks like that you're inside the old times! Best place in Glasgow so far. - Diego Chohfi
A small museum full of great stuffs. Totally worth the visit if not only religion, but history is your thing. It is not as impartial as it should be on some subjects though. - Solo Mascarenhas
Great place for lunch or people watching on a sunny day. Amazing architecture and lots of statues of interest. - Jim Waddell
Mix of different experiences, I enjoyed the swords on display, the Scottish first peoples and Scottish history and culture. A lot for kids to experience as well. - Hemera Beretta
