We had a little trip to Glasgow to visit family. It was Sofia’s first time on an airplane ✈️ she was amazing. Just round the corner from our accommodation was Glasglow Green! What an amazing area with the best playarea i’ve ever seen. There was so much more to explore than what i’ve caputured, so if you evet have the chance its well worth a visit 💚 #glasgow #glasgowgreen #amazingparksinuk #mumsoftiktok #freedaysoutwithkids #daysoutwithkids #scotland #toddlersoftiktok #playareaforkids #daysoutglasgow #freethingstodo #freethingstodoinglasgow

Security was ott! Taking umbrellas and binning them, deodorant binned, an unopened can of juice, binned. I could have kept them in my bag, no need to confiscate them! The drinks area with queue control was a shambles, we got to the serving counter to have rainwater collecting on the canopy above our heads dump us every 5 seconds! No lids for drinks so we had our beers etc diluted with heavy rainwater. I didn't use the portacabin toilets but there appeared plenty on the park. Plenty staff to help too. Plenty food outlets but nowhere to sit! I have chronic pain and if I'm going to eat, I prefer to have a rest and sit down, you can't do that here. I don't fancy sitting on mud. I'm unsure what the expect people to do...stand for 17 + hours while at events lasting a weekend..dint believe they thought of that one.

Glasgow Green is by far the oldest of the city's parks established in the 15th century. It is situated within walking distance of the city centre east of the Saltmarket. It's home to a variety of attractions, including: • The People's Palace, a museum dedicated to the history of Glasgow's working class • The Nelson Monument, a 130-foot (40-meter) column dedicated to Admiral Lord Nelson • The McLennan Arch, a 19th-century archway that is a popular spot for photo ops • The Templeton Carpet Factory, a former carpet factory that is now a popular event space • The St. Andrew's Suspension Bridge, a suspension bridge that connects Glasgow Green to the south side of the River Clyde Glasgow Green is also a popular spot for walking, fishing, and cycling.

Great for older and younger kids. Not many parks cater for the older ones. Loads of green space. A fantastic Freewheel North hiring out gocarts, bikes etc and so good with kids and adults of all abilities. Very reasonably priced. Massive play area for kids and a smaller but still significantly large area for the toddler age group. Loads of picnic benches to sit at. There is also a cafe there but we didn't use it. All day fun and you actually don't need to spend any money. Bring your own picnic. Toilets too which is always a must with kids. Recommend very highly.

Truly an amazing place. Perfectly cut fields and beautiful vegetation combined with monuments and backdrops of gorgeous architecture and the River Clyde. This place is perfect for a run, to set up a canvas and paint or just to draw, and take as many photographs as you can while you're here. You can also play football or rugby in the large stretches of grass, and there are football fields are also located in the southeastern corner of this place, and there are plenty of playgrounds for kids, too. All around a great place that I can't recommend enough
