Practically across the road from the flat is this fantastic green space. Home to a children’s play park, tea house, picnic benches, specular monkey puzzle trees, food cart, river walks along the river Kelvin, squirrels, a glass house, and the iconic Kibble palace. This is the round glass building close to the main entrance which houses many almost hypnotic goldfish, exotic plants to learn about.

At the top of Byers road (about a 5 min walk away from the flat) is the old Kelvinside Parish Church, which as been turned into a spectacular bar, restaurant, nightclub, theatre and wedding venue. Sympathetically restored and with a mural from a famous local artist in the auditorium, it makes it one of the largest pieces of public art in Scotland.

Things to do
As the weather isn’t always agreeable in Glasgow, it helps that all Glasgow museums and all art galleries, of which there are many, are free. Glasgow is also known as the green city due to its number of green spaces versus city residents, from gorgeous quaint communal gardens to the likes of the sprawling 85 acre Kelvin grove park. Also bear in mind, when travelling on the subway, pushchairs must be folded up.
교통편
Getting about.
The underground is the best way to get about. Locally known as the clockwork orange, (due to its orange cars) it only goes in 2 directions , so even though you get on the train, going the wrong direction.....eventually you will end up at the correct place. As it takes 24 minutes to go a full circle route. There are also many buses that can take you all over the city, not to mention the famous Glasgow taxi tour and Glasgow sightseeing bus. Glasgow is a very walkable city on a nice day.

What to bring
Although there is an umbrella in the flat, a good rain jacket and walking shoes would be sensible.
