With an eerie cinematographic quality to it, the Glasgow Necropolis is where many prominent figures of the time found eternal rest during the 19th century industrial boom. Today, the Necropolis is the place to go for contemplative walks and capturing some of the best views over the city.
Do & See
Glasgow has a wide selection of museums and galleries, many of which are free of charge to enter. In a way, the city itself is an open-air museum for architecture with a special focus on the works of the Scottish architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh. To get a good view of the city from above, climb one of the many hills Glasgow was built upon: some of the best bird's-eye views uncover from the Necropolis.
