Exploring The BEST Things To Do In GLASGOW!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Today w'ere exploring the best things to do in GLASGOW, SCOTLAND!!

If we're being honest, we had no clue what to expect before arriving in Glasgow. We knew they were obviously known as the capital of Scotland & a major home for Scottish football, but there's SO MUCH to do in Glasgow & this video merely scratches the surface!

Today we start by going to Willow Grove for coffee. Willow Grove Coffee is a very popular coffee shop in Glasgow & the flat white tasted incredible! It's a really popular place & we highly recommend it!

We then made our way over to the University of Glasgow. We knew that this college would be impressive, but it wildly exceeded our expectations! The cloisters gave a really cool Harry Potter feel & the university itself is one of the four oldest universities in the English-speaking world. University of Glasgow is an excellent spot to enjoy coffee while enjoying some spectacular scenery.

From there we hopped in the car & drove into the center of Glasgow to see Buchanan Street. This felt like the main thoroughfare in Glasgow & made for a great afternoon of window shopping. If you're looking to shop until you drop then this is the place for you!! While in the center of Glasgow, make sure to stop & see George Square. George Square is a central hub for the city & has a host of different statues of famous Scottish people who've done great things.

Shortly after we walked over to BrewDog Merchant City. This is a chain restaurant/brewery, but has an excellent selection of Scottish beers that we wanted to try. The barbecue & fries were an excellent treat along with our IPAs!

After sufficiently stuffing ourselves with good food & great beer, we decided to walk a bit to Glasgow Cathedral & the Necropolis behind it. This cathedral is truly stunning. From the vaulted ceilings to the crypt below, we were mesmerized by the architecture & couldn't believe this was free to tour (although donations are encouraged). Behind the Glasgow Cathedral is the Necropolis. Trey loves a good cemetery, & it's not hard to see why when you enter this. These Victorian headstones highlight the ornate tastes of previous generations. Make sure to walk through & marvel at some of the most beautiful headstones you'll find in Britain!

We finished our day by going to Ashton Lane. Ashton Lane is a cobblestoned backstreet in the West End of Glasgow. There are numerous bars & restaurants to choose from, & we opted with stopping at Innis & Gunn Brewery. We sampled some great beers & sandwiches before closing out our day in Glasgow. Glasgow's such an incredible city & we had such a great time. If you love good food & beer then add Glasgow to your itinerary next time you're in the UK!

Should've visited Tantrum doughnuts on Gordon street. The doughnuts are massive.

As a Glaswegian I think you did a great job of highlighting my city.

I was recently on a road trip with a Dutch friend who hadn't been this way before, taking in Dublin, Manchester and Glasgow. Dublin is charming, Manchester is rather dull and disconcerting. Then there was Glasgow... in a different league. Such a great big city vibe. Loads of culture and street life. For tourists, the best city in the UK after London without a doubt.

The transport museum and kelvingrove gallery are definitely s must see!!

[stephaniep]

I'm looking forward to visiting Glasgow first time. Thanks for the video 😊

Another great video! I'd love to visit Scotland. It's such a beautiful place! Keep up the good work! Y'all are becoming one of my favorite YouTube channels.

So much fun watching you guys in Glasgow, a city I have yet to visit.

Ex Glasgow now living in Canada and I miss it terribly. First time it's best to take the city tour bus to pick out spots you want to explore and it's cheap as chips. My favourite haunts are the Kelvingrove Museum, Buchanan Street pedestrian mall, the Transport Museum, the Gallery of Modern Art and Byers Road for great fish and chips ending at the Botanical Gardens tea room.
Glasgow has the best subway system in the world and the bus and train services are great. I wouldn't take a car to see Glasgow when there is such a great transport system. Park for free in an out Vilkage like Milngavie and take the train to one of the two train stations. The subway or underground there is a loop so if you miss a stop you stay on until it comes around again. Each stop you get off at has something to see. Buy a day pass. I never could get bored living there.

Botanical gardens are beautiful any time of the year great walk and lots of beautiful plants to see. Just off of the top of Byers Road
And so so so glad that you say Glasgow correctly.

Glad you guys enjoyed my City. Fun fact about the necropolis you visited, it was actually used as a set to film the recent batman movie with Robert Pattinson. As were some of the rooftops in the City Centre

[seantedford]

Great People you have the love and spirit of Glasgow and Scotland in your hearts now and for sure you guys are welcome anytime and I'm sure you'll be back if not stay forever 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

While it's true that the University of Glasgow is over 560 years old the university has moved from its original High Street campus. The current main building was built in 1871 so it's not all that old. A few parts of the original buildings were moved to the new campus including the lion and unicorn staircase shown. It's a fantastic place to visit and has several museums and art galleries on campus including a reconstruction of Charles Rennie Mackintosh's house. I feel like I've spent a huge chunk of my life there as I got my MA here and have worked at the university for over 20 years

If you can't be bothered to go downtown, try Byres Road. Not as crowded, lots of eating/drinking options.

[dangercat]

Scotland is so pretty. I wanna visit some day. And the glaswegian accent is my fave.

[mcgoverg]

If you return try to visit Pollok Park and the Burrell Collection (which is within the park)

[dawnfitzpatrick]
