Location
 

Glasgow was once known as “The Second City of the Empire” because of the volume of trade that moved through its ports to the rest of the world. Glasgow is one of Europe’s most fashionable and lively cities, and has become the UK’s third most popular tourist destination. Glasgow is the largest and wealthiest city in Scotland with almost one million people - almost 20 per cent of the whole Scottish population, and a 40,000 strong student population.
