Glasgow Science Centre

With a mission to bring science to all kinds of audiences, Glasgow Science Centre on the south bank of the River Clyde houses numerous events, workshops and exhibitions. Surely they have IMAX, but it has some serious competitors on the entertainment front, such as the bodyworks show and the science theatre.

Pollok Country Park

Whether it's cycling or a relaxing picnic you are after, the city's only, 146-hectare country park is a scenic location for any outdoor programme. Beyond the treasures of nature — such as the popular Highland cattle — the park also houses the Pollok House and the Burrell Collection with their impressive art collections.

The Necropolis

East of the city's prominent cathedral, the Glasgow Necropolis is where fifty thousand — including numerous prominent figures — found eternal rest over the course of the 19th century. Guided tours are available to explore the architecture and stories preserved in this 15-hectare Victorian cemetery.

The Tall Ship Glenlee

A visit to SV Glenlee is a glimpse into Glasgow's nautical history. This former cargo sailing ship has been lovingly restored and transformed into one of Glasgow's prime attractions. Climb aboard and roam from the captain's quarters to the engine room, soaking up the maritime atmosphere. Got little adventurers in tow? They'll be well entertained in the ship's dedicated play area. Audio guides are at your disposal for a more enriching visit. It's not just a ship; it's a glimpse into Glasgow's nautical history.
