Hiking

Glasgow Cathedral is one of the few medieval cathedrals in Scotland that was not destroyed. That is what makes it so worth seeing.
At this spot, Saint Mungo built a chapel on the small river Molindar around 600 AD and worked here from then on. After his death, people built a cathedral over his grave. And a city soon grew up around it: Glasgow.

Hiking

The building is impressive and certainly the highlight of Glasgow. What is a little annoying is that it looks more like an exhibition hall than a church. Most of the windows are no longer original and the newer versions are only partially well done.
