Review:

Known as Glasgow's "style mile," Buchanan Street is lively Pedestrian Street paved with lovely granite stonework and lined on both sides with Victorian architectural gems mixed with modern but impressive new additions. This stylish, well-done combination has won the Buchanan Street coveted Academy of Urbanism "Great Street Award." The Glasgow Royal Concert Hall is also here, as well as the controversial statue of the politician Donald Dewar.

At night, beautiful blue neon lights turn the street into a fairytale playground for shoppers and tourists. Nearby are St George's-Tron Church and the building that houses the Glasgow Stock Exchange. The Gallery of Modern Art is situated on the adjacent Royal Exchange Square. Located in the heart of the city, Buchanan Street is shoppers' paradise, with Buchanan Galleries and flagship stores of many upscale designers. Buchanan Street Map
