Glasgow Shopping Guide

Glasgow has an excellent variety of retail emporiums and ranks second to London for shopping and fashion. The city's vibrant and bustling shopping district is situated in the heart of the city around Argyle Street, Buchanan Street and Sauchiehall Street. Glasgow is a delightful haven to engage in retail therapy with its exclusive selection of designer retailers, high street stores and air-conditioned shopping malls.

The city centre's shopping area hosts a diversity of specialist shops, ranging from malt whiskey, Scottish souvenirs, tartan kilts to gadgets and the latest technologies. Princess Square in Buchanan Street specialises in speciality shopping and features an exclusive range of designer goods and artwork. This exquisite shopping mall is an architectural showpiece that blends Victorian architecture with an intricate Art Nouveau interior, Rennie Macintosh style. At the other end of the spectrum, Buchanan Galleries and The St Enoch Centre feature all the high street names and department stores from BHS, Debenhams, John Lewis to Next and H&M.

Should you require taking a break from shopping and the bustle, why not relax and enjoy a spot of people watching in one of the many bars, cafés and eateries in Glasgow's central shopping area. Many city centre cafes are typically European with tables and seats al fresco in the summer months. The Merchant City area has an excellent range of eateries to satisfy your taste buds and quench your thirst after a hard day of retail therapy.

Whatever shopping budget you fit into, you will not be disappointed by anything that this cosmopolitan city has to offer.
