Funny statue with that traffic cone. In the past, that cone was always removed, but a new one was always placed. By who?

One of the things you'll enjoy about your visit to Glasgow is the art around the city. Enjoy discovering the murals on the side of the buildings.

Lovely iconic clock tower in Glasgow. It’s very striking and most definitely worth a look at when visiting Glasgow.

Nice square around the church, spent some time here and take some wonderful photos.

Previously called St Georges Place, in the 80's, Glasgow City Council decided to rename this to honour Nelson Mandela, who was then imprisoned in South Africa.

This is Glasgow's "Arc de Triomphe". Large structure that sets off the western entrance to the Green
