🎀A slogan that can be seen everywhere in Glasgow is: 'People Make Glasgow'. It is also the brand of the city, indicating that people's spirit and attitude can create the unique quality of the city. It also reflects the characteristics of the city: direct, ambitious, and regretless. 🎀In Glasgow, roadside shops have their own designed signs, colorful and diverse in style, graffiti can be seen everywhere. The 'hat-wearing' Duke of Wellington statue (Figure 6️⃣) at the entrance of the Museum of Modern Art, initially a prank, someone climbed the statue late at night and put a traffic cone on the duke's head. Everyone thought this image could represent the city's humorous and relaxed attitude. After several rounds of taking it on and off, the municipal authorities finally compromised. 🎀Glasgow has outstanding architectural relics from the 18th to 19th centuries. With the continuous development of the city, modern and classical collide and blend here. In 1999, it was named 'UK City of Architecture and Design'. At the same time, Glasgow has a unique atmosphere of humanities and arts. There are many street performances, impromptu dramas, singing and dancing in the city center. People here are very passionate about music and fine arts. There are many theaters, museums and art galleries. If you travel to Scotland, don't miss this city.😀

I wandered along Buchanan Street, soaking in the lively atmosphere of street performers and shoppers. The Glasgow City Chambers caught my eye with its ornate details, a reminder of the city’s grand past.
