Glasgow as one of the world’s top 10 cities

Glasgow has been named as one of the world’s top 10 cities by the travel guide, Lonely Planet in their Travel 2009 booklet.

The other cities in the top 10 were: Antwerp, Beirut, Chicago, Lisbon, Mexico City, Sao Paulo, Shanghai, Warsaw and Zurich.

My previous post (in chinese version) gave some brief introduction about the city of Glasgow, but I only introduced the historical sites, parks, etc here. However, this travel guide states:"

Forget castles, kilts, bagpipes and tartan. You come for the cocktails, cuisine and designer chic (plus the legendary native wit)."

"Glasgow has shaken off its shroud of industrial soot and shimmied into a sparkling new designer gown."

Included in the "what's hot" in Glasgow list is actor James McAvoy and pan-fried scallops.

Earlier time, Lonely Planet also publish a guideline for student who wish to study at Glasgow University, for more info feel free to visit the e-version of this booklet:-

As I mentioned in my previous posts, Glasgow is a great place, feel free to visit here in the future. :-)
