A brief lesson on Scotland: the country is divided into the Lowlands and Highlands, which, despite sounding like a matter of elevation, essentially refer to the southern and northern parts, respectively. Glasgow can be considered the capital of the Lowlands region and is the third most populated city in the United Kingdom. It is one of the premier locations to observe Victorian-era architecture, including numerous castles and cathedrals, with some structures even dating back to the medieval period. Glasgow is a haven for museum enthusiasts, offering a wealth of collections dedicated to beautiful art and other fascinating subjects, such as the Glasgow Museum of Transport.
