LIVE MUSIC
Scotland's liveliest nightlife is found in the din and roar of Glasgow's drinking dens, from
traditional Victorian pubs to its famed style bars. It's also the star of Scotland's live-music
scene, with many venues and bands, from top international acts to local start-ups.
DESIGN
From Charles Rennie Mackintosh's iconic buildings and interiors and the centre's grand
Victorian architecture, to the fashion boutiques of the Italian Centre and design exhibi-

HISTORIC ABBEYS
Rolling countryside and ruined abbeys dot Scotland's southern border. The Gothic ruins of
Melrose, Jedburgh, Dryburgh and Sweetheart and the martial towers of Hermitage Castle,
Caerlaverock Castle and Smailholm are eloquent testimony to a turbulent past.
