SwarmOnline team just wanted to remind you that we live in a beautiful country which is full of amazing places we can visit even in the lockdown. Thus, here are 5 great things to do in Glasgow this weekend chosen by our team:
1. See sunset above the city in Necropolis
Stroll among the monuments, look out over the city and wonder just how green and bucolic the view was more than two centuries ago.
2. Cycling near the River Clyde
It's an ideal route for seeing the River Clyde in all its glory: Finnieston Crane, Armadillo, Hydro, Glasgow Science Centre and many more iconic Glasgow buildings.
3. Feel close to the nature in the Pollok Country Park
Get the blood pumping with a stroll through serene surroundings, followed by some cooing over the Highland cows and Clydesdale horses.
4. Family walk in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens
One of the prettiest green spaces in Glasgow, packed with history, botany and fine architecture is perfect for a long beautiful walk. With two decent food concessions on the grounds – a takeaway kiosk and the Botanic Gardens Tearoom in the former curator’s house – you needn’t stray far for refreshment.
5. Take a wander round Glasgow Green
One of the oldest and most historic parks in Scotland stretches from the Saltmarket at the High Court across to the Calton and Bridgeton districts, and was used mainly for sheep and cattle grazing until the nineteenth century.
