Glasgow

The simplest and quickest way is to fly from Glasgow to Belfast, which is a short flight, no more than half an hour. You could also travel by road or rail from Glasgow to Stranraer and get a ferry to Larne, which is very close to Belfast.

Of course Glasgow is a "big city" well in terms of the UK definition, and in comparison to UK average city sizes. Glasgow, even when considering just the Glasgow local authourity area is the third largest city in the United Kingdom after London and Birmingham, and nearly a third larger again than Scotland's capital city - Edinburgh.

Of course, if comparing Glasgow to the likes of London, New York, Paris or Tokyo then we would have to appropriatly determine the true definition of "big" in order to establish the true credentials of a city considered big, and it would probably be more suitable to call these huge cities "megalopolises" as opposed to just "big".

Bear in mind that the city's population has been made artificially smaller by both changes in the Glasgow City Council boundary, and movement to the outer suburbs and towns which are outwith this boundary, but still notionally part of the Greater Glasgow metropolitan area - towns such as Clydebank, Paisley, Kirkintilloch, Rutherglen, Cambuslang, Bearsden, Milngavie etc which all still have an 0141 telephone code and a "G" postcode. The residents of these areas still use Glasgow daily for work etc, and many still identify themselves as being "Glaswegian", but who are not themselves counted in any survey for Glasgow on population counts.

However, Glasgow is indeed larger than many capital cities around the world, and the Glasgow metropolitan area has a population of around 1.8-2.0 million - accounting for around one in three of the entire population of Scotland, and the truth is that many of theses sattelite towns could simply not exist if it were not for the jobs etc that Glasgow provides.

The bigger city infrastructure is clearly in place in Glasgow, and it has many many historical buildings, and everything else that you would expect to have in a "big city" such as the subway (underground) entertainment, regular appearances by top bands etc etc.

It has also contributed vastly to the wealth of the British economy, and helped considerably finance the British empire, and was for many many years only second to London in importance. Even today, Glasgow is the No.3 financial centre in Britain after London and Edinburgh for example.

Hope this answers your question.

Oh, isn't that a lovely question? Well, both Glasgow and Edinburgh have their own charming airports, each with its own unique beauty. Glasgow Airport is a bit larger in size and handles more passengers, while Edinburgh Airport has a longer runway. But remember, it's not about the size that matters, it's about the joy of travel and the wonderful destinations you can explore from either airport.

Glasgow was never a deliberate target of bombing during WWII. Some bombs did land on the city during raids on neighbouring Clydebank. Those raids took place on the 13th and 14th of March 1941. It is thought that the target was the John Brown ship yards and nearby ordinance factories.

On 13th and 14th of March 1941, German bombers attacked the Clydeside area. The bombing was concentrated on Clydebank though some bombs fell wide of the target. There were 260 bombers on the first night - waves of high-explosive bombs, incendiary bombs and land-mines were dropped over a nine-hour period. The second night, 200 bombers returned. Their bombing raid lasted over seven and a half hours. Over the two days 528 civilians were killed, over 617 people were seriously injured, and several housing schemes were completely wiped out; 48,000 civilians lost their homes.

You could walk but it would take half an hour tops and if your not familiar with the city you will probably get lost. Nearest the main Glasgow Uni building there is Hillhead underground on Byres Road. If you take the underground to Bucanan Street station it is a 5 min walk to Central. I wouldn't mess about with buses if you don't know Glasgow.

There are no people registered with the first name or surname Glasgow in the United Kingdom according to the National Archives. The town of Glasgow wasn't named after anyone but it's likely that it gets its name from the word glas cu, which means glass hollow.

In Glasgow, various types of houses reflect its rich architectural history, with tenement buildings being particularly common. These multi-story, sandstone flats were built in the 19th and early 20th centuries to accommodate the growing working-class population during the Industrial Revolution. Additionally, there are Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, as well as modern developments. The city's diverse housing styles showcase its evolution and cultural influences over time.
