Local Attractions There is plenty to see and do in the centre of Glasgow including a visit to the Riverside Museum, with more than 3,000 objects telling the story of Glasgow’s rich past. The Glasgow Science Centre, Clyde Distillery and The SSE Hydro and the Scottish Event Centre are all in close proximity to the Riverside Museum, which sits on the banks of the River Clyde. Glasgow Green is home to the People’s Palace and Winter Gardens as well as the Nelson Monument and the restored Doulton Fountain. Nearby is the Briggait - the city’s fish market in medieval times, Trongate 103, the Barrowland Ballroom and the Citizens Theatre, all of which are worth a visit.
