What can I do in Glasgow on the cheap? I will be spending two days in Glasgow next week. I'm on a tight budget

Question

I'm into museums, cafes, good food. Also, I would like to visit the bohemian/hip/alternative part of Glasgow? Any idea where that might be? Is it the West End?

Answer 1

There is loads to do in Glasgow.As an Eastender I really shouldnt be saying this but yeah  your best bet would be the West End, where you'll find the Kelvingrove art gallery and the transport museum.The city centre also has the gallery of modern art and also the St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and art (its not like it sounds...im not into religious stuff but I really like it), thats up near the Cathedral. If your about at the weekend and want to experience a bit of good old fashioned Glasgow banter you could go to the Barras and then head just round from that into Kings Court which has a hip shopping sections with a good vintage clothing shop called Mr Bens and there are good bars near this area too.

Anyway I hope you find Glasgow a nice city and enjoy our stay x*x

All council owned museums in Glasgow are free to get into, ie Kelvingrove Art gallery, Transport Museum etc, the west end is also the best place to be if you want bohemian?hip etc.
