Glasgow Green

The Green is the oldest park in Glasgow. It is 20 minutes' walk east from the city center and dates back to 1450! A bishop inherited it and opened it to the public so that the people of the city would have somewhere to go to enjoy themselves. For a long time, it was the only park in Glasgow. This is where the football team The Rangers was founded, and there are several playgrounds, a museum and a winter garden in a greenhouse where you can stop for a hot drink. The park is now surrounded by factories and high-rise buildings, but it's still a great place to visit. The People's Palace traces the lives of Glasgow throughout the centuries.
