As soon as October starts… 🧣🪄🔮🧙🏻👻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎃 (Save list below if visiting Scotland for Halloween!) University of Glasgow or Hogwarts? Scotland is my favorite place during autumn, especially with Halloween around the corner. The country has so many beautiful places to adventure & see the autumn leaves changing but it’s also well know for its ghost stories + spirits living amongst Scottish people. One the best cities to enjoy spooky season is Glasgow (the city I live in) a must when visiting during this time of the year. Here are 5 ways to get into the chilling October mood in Glasgow: 👻Head to the famous Glasgow necropolis for a wander. 👻 Stop by the university of Glasgow for Harry Potter vibes. 👻 Take a guided waking tour on a ghosts of Glasgow walk with visits to infamous haunted spots like Scotia bar, Kelvin Hall, cathedral house hotel, Pollok House, & the Scotland street school museum. 👻 Visit Theater Royal for a ghost sighting or Tron theater, one of Glasgow’s most haunted spots. 👻 Glasgow Royal infirmary. With more than 2 centuries of history, there’s been plenty of time for sightings of the supernatural in & around the building. Tag us if you visited any of these spots! Enjoy & stay safe out there…Happy haunting! 👻🎃🧙🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #LATGxScotland #SimplyScotland #Glasgow #harrypotter #hogwarts #universityofglasgow #haunted #hauntedscotland #scotland

Located in the district of Kingston, Scotland street school museum has wonderfully preserved the evolution of education system in Scotland in the 2Oth century. We were fascinated by the exhibits. I definitely recommend it to anyone interested in history and education. The employees there are very knowledgeable and welcoming. My 8 year old daughter was shown all the toys commonly used by both boys and girls in Scottish schools in the last century and she could play with some of them.

OMG. A MUST SEE. A MUST SEE. This museum/relic is perfectly preserved in a state of readiness. What I mean by that is most things are original but it's design and use is ageless and simplistically stunning. Not many of this kind of places left hence A MUST SEE. It has been adapted for wheel chair users and has a lift inside that allowed wheel chair users to fully experience the sheer audacity of this building. There is no street parking. XxxwarningXxx the available parking across the street from the school belongs to the underground spt. If you have a bramble card then you can park here for an hourly rate which is quite cheap. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A BRAMBLE CARD THEN FLAT FEE OF £6 APPLIES NO MATTER HOW LONG YOUR PARKED. Sorry had to get that across as I made the mistake in thinking it was hourly parking rates and spent an hour in the school and cost me £6 for parking. However was worth it as the visiting experience of this place was just heart warming to say the...

This is my all time favourite museum in Glasgow! I haven't visited since I was in my teens. I thoroughly enjoyed my recent visit. There were some toys for children to play with, as well as some fun summer crafts to try out. I enjoyed the photography exhibition on the second floor, depicting life in Glasgow in years gone by. I also enjoyed the fantastic exhibition on "Gaswegasians", which was a fascinating insight into the wonderful diversity in Glasgow!

However, the best part of the museum is definitely the preserved classrooms on the top floor. It feels like you're going back in time! You can even try on a dunce cap and sit in the teacher's chair!

My only suggestion for improvement is that I'd like to see more crafts, objects etc of antiquity. My memory is of the museum having artefacts such as toys, clothes, materials to look at. I'd like to be pulled back in time to enjoy more immersive...

I am very fond previous pupil of this school and find that it is quite a disgrace that such a historic building isn't being kept up to standards by the cities parks department for its gardening and after talks with Nicola Sturgeon who had previous said that things would be done to ensure the preservation of the school and the museum. Now, I would like to personally vouch myself as a volunteer to clear the playground and the bathrooms in which after seeing, are easy fixes as these two areas should never have reached such poor states. I would do this weekly to ensure that people world wide would have the best oppertunity to see life in the older schools...
