 the clyde by willy_wonka coursing through the heart of glasgow city is the river clyde. when in glasgow definitely take a walk along the river's edge. there is an excellent walk and cycle path that you can take. you can take a tour on the "pride o' the clyde" which is a boat that goes along the river and shows points of interest such as the glasgow auditorium, which people say is shaped like an armadillo. the riverfront on a broody and gloomy sunday afternoon was tranquil and quiet, just the way i like it!

 Clydebuilt by hevbell The "Pride of the Clyde" runs from outside the Scottish Maritime Museum at Braehead to Jamaica Wharf in the city centre, along the River Clyde. Its makes a change from getting the bus into the city centre. We parked at Braehead and took the ferry service so we could spend part of the day in the city centre. There was a commentary and tickets cost £5 for an adult return. I've heard that they plan to add more stops in the future, possibly including the Science Centre and another shopping centre that is planned on the other side of the Clyde.

 river clyde by hevbell Like many cities, Glasgow is built on the two sides of a river, in this case the River Clyde. Its hard to believe, when you look at the river now, that until the late 1700s it was so shallow people could wade across it! Thanks to work to deepen and canalise it large ships were then able to come right up into the city centre. There is a saying that goes "The Clyde made Glasgow, and Glasgow made the Clyde". The river has long been known for its ship building although no so much now as it used to be. This picture was taken at a bit of a quieter point on the river, near Glasgow Green Leave a Comment

 fountain to mark Glasgows fresh water supply 1851 by cooltomjapan Three of the best things to see in Scotland are in this park. The park itself is very beautiful, in truth spectacularly so. The fountain in the park,see photo, near the duck pond celebrates the first city in the world over million people to have engineers pump fresh water from the mountains to the city, and a big engineers conference to show world how to do it. Nearby is a statue given to the city by president Kennedy. Also a fantastic skating park. Address: 2 blocks west of Charing crossDirections: West End

Makes the liffey look like a wee burn this river ,mother of 90% of all the worlds metal ships in 1900 ,is a historical maritime live story. We took the cruise from under central station to the Braehead centre on the outskirts of REnfrew. The guide was a mine of information. Docks,ship yards and present day operations were all historically accounted for in an often humerous way, the accent is thick but fun and our arrival at Braehead led us onto another adventure with its shops and activitiy centres,including the worlds biggest indoor sky centre A truly great day with something for all the family. Leave a Comment Address: under central station on north side of the river.Website: www.
