Its galleries are full of displays, artefacts and stunning works of art. They explore the importance of religion in peoples’ lives across the world and across time. The venue aims to promote understanding and respect between people of different faiths and of none, and offers something for everyone.

It’s perhaps a cheat to include a whole street in this list – but with so much going on in the west end’s cobbled lanes, it’s hard to know where to start. If Glasgow’s city centre is a mecca for big brand names, then the west end is the place for one-off finds and unique boutiques. Cresswell Lane is at the centre of it all, with vintage, homeware, cakes and bakes, tapas, jewellery, furniture and one-off gifts all crammed into one narrow walkway. Head to De Courcy’s Arcade for cake at The Cup and Saucer or gifts at Elements.
