    Glasgow is the second best city for shopping in the United Kingdom after London.This picture was taken at SAUCHIEHALL STREET,this is main shopping street in the city.Apart of all nice shops that you can see along the street,at the end you will find the largest Departament Store in the city THE BUCHANAN GALLERIES.Also there is another very nice shopping area next the riverside.
    As you can see on the picture this street is always crowded!!!.

    Also in Glasgow you will find a few more huge shopping centres and department stores,see my shopping tips for more information for shopping in Glasgow.

    on a sunday afternoon, the pedestrian mall of buchanan street was alive and kicking with shoppers and people strolling around enjoying a lazy sunday arvo.

    at the northern end of buchanan street mall you will see the glasgow royal concert hall. the central bus station is just behind this. all along the strip there are little pubs, shops, malls and of course, more shops!

    the buchanan street mall ends at st eunoch square.

    If you want to try shopping away from the city centre then Braehead is for you. Head toward Renfrew and Braehead will be there on the edge of the city.
    There are plenty of places to eat and an ice rink too.
    Xscape is right beside Braehead, has better restaurants and a multi screen cinema. Xscape also has activities for the keen. There is Sno! Where you can ski, toboggan and ice slide. Pre book at www.snozoneuk.com
    Also at Xscape (the spelling is dreadful in this place!) a climbing wall, aerial assault course, adventure golf and soccer circus.
    This is the place for bored teenagers!

    Rather than wearing your legs away tramping about the city here`s a suggestion to help you relax. The bookshops Borders and Waterstones are ideal for passing some quiet time. Borders is in Buchanan Street and has a Starbucks coffee shop on the first floor while Waterstones has a Costa coffee in the basement beside the children`s books.
    Both shops are open later than the surrounding shops.
    And relax!

    Glasgow is a great place to go shopping. With three largely pedestrianised areas - Sauchiehall St, Argyle St and Buchanan St - Glasgow houses some of the trendiest shops. From cheap and cheerful to downright expensive, there is something for everyone's budget...and even if you are broke, it is worth having a little peek in the windows! I actually went shopping today, first time in a while...stuck it all on my visa card! My favourite place to go shopping has to be the St Enoch centre which is just off of Argyle St. A shop in there, called TK Maxx, is great, it provides designer clothes at a discount, and it is huge!!

    Most of the stores are located on Buchanan St, near to George Square. There's no must-sees and with a 18% sales tax, there's no great buys either.

    Anyone who knows me well, knows that one of my favourite pastimes is shopping! And Glasgow really is a great place to shop. Its second only to London in the UK for shopping. The main shopping streets in the centre of the city are Sauchiehall St, Buchanan St (pictured) & Argyle St and there are also a few shopping centres such as the St Enoch Centre, the new Buchanan Galleries, Sauchiehall Centre, Princes Square right in the city centre also.Then further out you have the Braehead Shopping Centre [off the m8 at Hillington] & new Silverburn [just off the M77] on the south side of the river. Plus the Glasgow Fort near Easterhouse just off the M8. You can definitely spend a good day shopping until you drop here!
