Hi, Lucy
It all depends on your budget and interests!
If you are interested in Charles Rennie MacIntosh loads to
see.
We have several good museums and art galleries though our main
one is closed for renovation :-(. You can, however, see a
representative part of the collection in the McLellan galleries
in
Sauchiehall St.
We are supposed to be the best shopping centre outside London.
There are good hotels at all levels of cost as well as several
good
B&Bs, near the centre of town.
We have a good sightseeing tour of the city by bus, in fact
there
are at least two companies doing this.
If you are interested in architecture it is still one of the
finest
for Victorian buildings.
Lots of good restaurants for all tastes-Scottish, ltalian,
Chinese, Indian, Thai, French-the lot.
If you are on a budget a good tip is that a lot have pre-theatre
menus from about 5.30 - 7.30 which are just as good and cheaper
than their a la cartes later in the evening.
Let me know if you wish more detailed info-glad to help.
