| 説明 | Glasgow City Center- The home of architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Glasgow boast sandstone Victorian building that have been lovingly restored. This important ship building center, 27 miles from Glasgow, was the birthplace of James Watt, a pioneer in the development of the steam engine. Lyle Hill, behind the town provides an excellent vantage point, affording a wide view of the Clyde estuary from Helensburgh right round to Dunoon. The Custom House Museum, on the quay north of Greenock Central train station, traces the history of the Customs & Excise service. The Mclean Museum & Art Gallery, west of the town center, charts the history of steam power and Clyde shipping. Greenock is also your gateway to Glasgow. Over the years Glasgow's traditional beauty has been lovingly restored, revealing the most exquisite Victorian city in the United Kingdom. You'll marvel at its masterful architecture, such as the City Chambers, and the elegant Princess Square makes for excellent shopping. Glasgow retains some of the finest museums and galleries in Europe, including the magnificent Burrell Collection, where you'll find a treasure trove of priceless paintings and art objects. Although Scotland and England have been united since 1707, this country retains its own unique character, including legal and educational systems quite distinct from those of England. Reminders of Scotland's Celtic past can be found across the land, from ancient hill forts to powerful symbolic stones, and their influence lives on in Scottish music, poetry, language and traditions.
