Address - Glasgow G12 8QQ, United Kingdom Highlights - Stunning architecture. Main Building. Avg. Price per Person - FREE/ £10.00 Rating - 5/5 Trust me! If you are in Glasgow, one of the place I would recommend is actually visiting the University! When you visit the university, it makes you feel like you’re in Hogwarts Campus. I totally love the beautiful architecture! I suggest for a whole day tour in the campus as it's big and there are many places of interest that you can visit and located inside the school such as The Hunterian Museum, The Hunterian Art Gallery, The Visitor Centre Shop for University merchandise and Scottish gifts. Do note that visiting the campus is free and if you want to find out more about the history or more information, you can sign up for a paid walking tour. #travelinspiration#scenicspotguide#historicculture#naturalwonders#culturalattractions

University of Glasgow was founded in 1451. It’s one of the oldest universities in Scotland. It’s a must-visit place when people visit Glasgow. The attractions nearby are Botanic Gardens, Kelvingrove Park and Kelvingrove Museum. I would recommend the Indian restaurant there, it’s called Mother’s India café. It’s an authentic Indian restaurant and you can see the beautiful Kelvingrove Museum if you sit beside the window!

Address - Glasgow G12 8QQ, United Kingdom (Located inside UoG campus) Highlights - Favourite Graduation photograph location. Used for films and TV shows. Rating - 5/5 Whenever people come to Glasgow, they are usually attracted to the campus since they think that Harry Potter was being filmed here, but it's not! I would say one fact that you didn't know: The campus appeared for filming such as Outlaw King, Cloud Atlas and Outlander! (Ha! Any of your favourite?) Quadrangles and Cloisters have gothic revival architecture, and they're a beautiful location for photographs, as well. You could often see people reading or studying under the Quadrangles tree with friends or just relaxing there. I would say this place is the best spot if you are looking for a place to relax or even have a picnic with your friends or family. #travelinspiration#historicculture#scenicspotguide#culturalattractions
