Glasgow owes its prosperous past to its position on the River Clyde, which made it an important port and a centre for shipbuilding and trade. These days it’s more famous for its cultural goings-on, with a rich offering of museums and theatres bringing in crowds from far and wide. It may not be the capital, but Glasgow is home to more people than Edinburgh and it’s the HQ of many of Scotland’s cultural institutions, including the Scottish Ballet and Scottish Opera. Little wonder that it’s the fourth most visited city in the UK.
