Glasgow

The name Glasgow is often said to mean 'dear green place'.

Glasgow was reputedly founded by the Christian missionary Saint Mungo in the 6th century.

Glasgow became one of the first cities in Europe to reach a population of one million.

The city was targeted in a terrorist attack in 2007, marking the first time Scotland was specifically targeted.

Glasgow is the rainiest city in the UK, with an average of more than 170 days of rain a year.
