Kelvingrove is the most visited museum in Scotland and the most visited in the UK outside of London. It recently underwent a massive refurbishment which has added new collections to its already impressive invitory.

2- Museum Of Transport

Everything from a horse and carriage to vintage steam trains are available here. A great place for kids or for a family day out, plenty to see.

3- Glasgow Cathedral

Worthwhile just to see the building itself, it is hundreds of years old and still looks magnificent, not bad inside either.

4- Burrell Collection

Located opposite the Kelvingrove Museum and well worth doing along with its more popular neighbor. Plenty to see from Ancient Egypt to information on Sir William Burrell who donated the collection.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/23385 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22767
Also, if you have time, take a walk in the park next to the Museum. The park is a great spot for Glasgow people watching and a magnet for skateboarders, rollerbladers and stunt bike riders. You cannot not fail to bump into some Glasgow life in Kelvingrove park and like the painting it will be an alternative view.

The park and Museum do Glasgow proud, both a must visit.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22767 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11720
And if it rains, the Burrell Collection is on site - marvellous antiquities and art and entry is free. Or you could visit Pollok House, an 18th century mansion house in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. Both venues have restaurants.

If going by car, park by Pollok House rather than by the Burrell if you want to avoid parking fees.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11720 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11719 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11719 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11710 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11710 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7922
While it may take a Glaswegian to see some of the subtler humour, it is definitely a gallery which will entertain. While the sculpture of the Queen in carpet slippers, bringing in the milk and papers from the doorstep of Buckingham Palace may not always be on display - there are plenty of others to raise a grin.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7922 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7619 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7619 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1287 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1287
