"Bonnie Scotland" Glasgow by deeper_blue

Glasgow Travel Guide: 1,218 reviews and 1,968 photos

Glasgow is a vibrant city with some attractive Victorian architecture. There are also many museums and galleries. In Celtic Glasgow means "a dear green place".
Nowadays Glasgow is sleek and modern; it is a huge, sprawling city with the river Clyde running right through it.

    I never knew much about Glasgow. Thanks for the information and pictures. A deep-fried Mars Bar actually sounds kind of good.

    Just come across your page on Glasgow-----very nice. Would have been nicer had you tied your name to your choice of Glasgow football team----Deeper blue would do a whole lot better as a Rangers fan!!!

    Hi Georgey, You have to wonder who was the first guy who thought, "Maybe I should deep fry a Mars Bar"?? Sort kills the idea of a quick snack. Thanx for the dietary tips ...Tom
