It is a dream castle. When I arrived, it was the April holiday, there were almost no people on the road, only the old buildings stood in the cold air, solemn and heavy, which was awe-inspiring.

We came here on a spontaneous visit one Sunday afternoon in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our wee boy loved seeing the &ldquo;old fashioned house&rdquo; and was so well looked after by all the staff, from the cash register to the flat and back out again.

We went round twice (with a shift change between visits!) and the insight into one story of no doubt thousands like it in Glasgow was fantastic. Plus our boy thoroughly enjoyed colouring in his wallie dug. A hidden gem that is well worth the wander through Garnethill.

It is said that it can be traced back to the famous William Conquest period. It was built to commemorate St. Diego. It took hundreds of years to build and has been around for nearly a thousand years. It is the oldest religious building in the entire Scottish region. It is also a must-see for tourists.

After visiting Glasgow Cathedral, we walked to the cemetery behind the cathedral. The cemetery situated on the hillside is very beautiful. In addition to the function of reaching high and far, the cemetery itself is dazzled by a variety of tombstones. Walking here seems not to come to the cemetery, but to the artistic stele forest of hell on earth. Today&#39;s weather is particularly clear. Although there are floating clouds in the blue sky, it always shows a large area of blue. The plane pulled smoke across the sky, leaving a white scratch on the blue. This sketch of the sky is very unusual. In the cemetery, overlooking Glasgow Cathedral, the structure is thin and tall, the color is dignified and simple, the appearance is solemn and solemn architecture, so that religious beliefs and the return of life in the limited space has been perfectly integrated in the infinite imagination. Standing here and looking at the surrounding scenery seems to be the best place to think about the philosophy of life. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the few tourists are just looking at it in a hurry, which may confirm the statement that the world passes by in a hurry.
