Sauchiehall Street
It is surely no understatement to describe Glasgow's Sauchiehall Street as the most famous street in Scotland. It's distinctive name, its vibrant night life and entertainment offer and its unbeatable shopping have all contributed to its fame. The street is a long one, over 2.5km in length from the City Centre to the West End and it joins Argyle Street at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. So what is it that makes Sauchiehall Street so special with Glaswegians and visitors?
The name Sauchiehall Street comes from the Gaelic "saugh" or willow tree and "haugh" meaning a meadow, and one of the places that should not be missed when visiting this area of Glasgow is the Willow Tea Rooms. Designed inside and out by Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 1903 right down to the cutlery and the uniforms, the building has been faithfully restored and this delightful tea room offers good food in a stunning setting. The City Centre part of Sauchiehall Street is pedestrianised and offers great shopping with all of the big brand names you would expect present - with easy access from the bus station on Buchanan Street.
Heading west towards Charing Cross station, parallel to Bath Street, there is no shortage of restaurants, bars and clubs offering a wide selection of evening entertainment for every taste. There are many other places of interest on and around Sauchiehall Street, such as the Glasgow School of Art, the Royal Highland Fusiliers Museum and the Glasgow Film Theatre.
