The Lion and Unicorn Staircase at the University of Glasgow is a beautiful historic feature, named after the lion (England) and unicorn (Scotland) statues. Originally built in the 17th century, it was later moved to the current campus. Its elegant stonework makes it a lovely spot to admire and take photos, but it’s nothing more than a decorative statue on a staircase, so no need to go out of your way.
