36 Hours in Glasgow | The New York Times
/ thenewyorktimes
36 hours in the west end
there's good parts to all every area in the city, even Easterhouse and Govan
+Murder Alcohol Drinkers u sick sick man
+Johnny Boy yeah like u
@@Free__Speech people who are boastful and arrogant like yourself have absolutely no class, as you have just demonstrated ya bawbag.
Defo pal
I'm from Brazil, been living in Glasgow for over 10 years, have visited over 20 countries in the world and can definitely say Glasgow is one of the most lively places in the world, yeah! the weather can be horrible most of the time but people make Glasgow unique and happy.
Renan Capra da Rocha nice but Glasgow is not a country
@@joshsilveirinha8184 read it again, he makes no mention of Glasgow being a country.
He said he had visited over 20 countries and Glasgow is one of the most lively Places!
Well said Renan 👍
Are you paid to say this
Renan Capra da Rocha Well said mate, I hope you enjoy your stay here.
There is more to Glasgow than hipsters and the West end.
+Rose m What alcoholics
Just cos we can drink everyone under the table doesn't make us alcoholics Jacob. I prefer 'masters of recreation'.
Pithy wit for example. Which you nearly demonstrated ;)
Did you have any good palace to suggest？
You can talk about the bad things which are becoming a thing of the past as Glasgow's booming creative and technology sectors are currently the biggest in Scotland, driving more business to it and making it a city the UK look to when talking about becoming a smart city. Don't act so high and mighty.
36 hours of avoiding 99% of glasgow
They wanted to show the part that’s not a brutalist hellhole
@@davidm2364 so 1%? What they showed isn't my city
Being from Glasgow masel I can confirm that this video is aload a pish no there's more to Glasgow than the posh west end
and sub club ffs
buggeroff 🤣🤣🤣
18 years growing up in Glasgow. Haven't seen this side of Glasgow...
Revolver The irony. You are also one of those people. Stop typing like a spastic and maybe you won't be giving people the wrong idea about Glasgow.
Godzkiller I'm actually just typing in a way that daft prick can understand. Glasgow is a beautiful city with excellent world famous architecture. But because that little muppet grew up in a tough suburb he talks like that's what Glasgow's like and it's not. It's a beautiful vibrant city. And is in the top 50 list of the most liveable cities in the world.
You are young haven't lived that long there's still time yet
It the west end full o posh twats and hipsters
im glaswegian and proud
This is a part of Glasgow for sure but not the real heart of Glasgow I don't think. It's must dirtier, guttural and visceral but still absolutely fantastic. Both parts have there place equally and I love it all
Fantastic city - one of the best and the only one I go back to willingly - there is so much to it, don't be afraid to embrace it all, not just Byres Road.
I’m a Glaswegian watching this in lockdown feeling sorry for myself :(
We've just filmed the vibrant Ashton Lane too, so it's good to have a little more info about it here. What an insight to see just how alive the city is. Thanks for enlightening us.
Tis delightful to see my area of Glasgow being honestly reflected on CZcams.
The normal CZcams fare is a bleak reflection of what the city was in the 50/60/70s and 80’s.
The West End is and has always been the ‘trendy’ place to chill out in, in what even now can still be an industrial city.
If at anytime you are moving to Glasgow, be it temporary or permanently; then seek out The West End 🎭.
It truly is the; “jewel in the crown, of my home town”.
Best
F
You make the west end sound like an oasis in a post-apocalyptic desert, which Glasgow is not.
Chríss M I disagree dude, I think my comment reflects countless conversations I have had in the West End with folks from other areas of the city.
In fact had two such conversations today whilst spending an early sunny spring day in the beautiful Botanic Gardens.
Try 36 hours in Govanhill lol
Rizwan Saqib Yeah, thanks Nicola.
@@deltanovember1672 Blame the ones that don’t know how to use a bin.
You all must have a wee look at the true Glasgow ........
Love yer channel Gary
Exactly
Mr.Glasgow yep
Ikr they should’ve shown us a junkie trying to fight a lamp post
Mr.Glasgow Govan Hill Street? (JK, that’s sound as)
The sub club has an open minded door policy? Hahahahah!!! Yeh right.
No mention of the arts scene - Glasgow has the strongest arts and cultural output outside of London - and is hosting Britain's prestigious Turner Prize this year. No mention of the outstanding Victorian architecture, The Glasgow Style of Charles Rennie Mackintosh is recognised as being the most significant contribution to Art Nouveau besides Paris - and the birth of modernism. No mention of all the new museums and venues, No mention of the fact that Glasgow is the best springboard for exploring or getting a taste of the Scottish countryside and Highlands - with outstanding beauty within one hours reach of the city. No mention of it's sporting pedigree and host to the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Cummon NYT.. Glasgow is the place! After all... you wouldn't have Frank Lloyd Wright and Art Deco, without Charles Rennie Mackintosh! And no mention above all of the passionate earthy people, the outgoing open-hearted up-front characters that make the place what it is................'And they cross and they dust and they skate and the night comes.....' West Princess St.. circa 1984.
Well said!
They were only there for 36 hours fs calm it Janet
Alice Cochrane I don’t think The New York Times did any research before leaving New York...looks as if they’ve Landed at Glasgow and picked out random shops...
glasgow school of art students are goths and hippies (cancer)
Great post Alice
Glasgow is my favourite city. Very friendly locals who went above and beyond to help us
Where r u from
To everyone saying this is not the "real" Glasgow: every city has many different sides to it, and no particular side is any more "real" than another. The people making this video just chose to show the particular side of the city, but that doesn't make this side of the city any less "real" than another.
I live in the West End and there's nothing real about it. The issue isn't with the video showing that side that as a concept, it's in the presentation implying that this is all Glasgow is. It's in the description claiming that Glasgow has changed from the long-held associations of poverty, when in reality for most Glaswegians this video might as well be from Edinburgh.
love it a high end restaurant bang next door to a bookiies
Do 36 hours in maryhill
None of these people are glaswegian. It's like one of those north Korea videos where everything is staged
Aye they are, I live in the west end and I know all these shops and people. They are glasgweigan and this is accurate,no staging.
@@tweetiepie551 the west end - is not real glasgow. its money glasgow - for tourists, wannabe/pretentious fakes, and the odd bit of intersting stuff. overall - utterly unappealing.
Aye I live in the West End and it's so obviously not representative of Glasgow as a whole.
Can't wait to go back
/Is this one of them Hipster videos?
If so, up eh road.
Amazing city, hope to visit when ll this is over!
awesome !
Decent positive image of the city. It's not bad all things considered and every city in the world is no stranger to the darker side that isn't shown. I think it is the kind of city though that whilst enjoying a good night in the places mentioned trouble could come looking for you as you make your way home or between places.
Great to see Harri & Domenic who are DJ's at the Sub Club on Jamiaca Street here, Glasgow is a true city of passion and i'm a Glaswegian.
Glasgow is really wonderful
Looks quite nice.
Glasgow looks like a decent European city like London or Paris.
agreed.
Is that Chris Geddes the keyboardist from Belle and Sebastian at 03:19?
A most interesting city - well done.
What happened to the real Glaswegians ???????????????????? there is a whole other City outside the West End, why couldn't they show the real Glasgow, I'm a Glasgow Taxi Driver, trust me this isn't the real Glasgow, real Glaswegians are the friendliest people you'll ever meet, c'mon people get it right, Glasgow Rules.
I know not even a single group of neds or showing some good ol sectarian fitba violence or nothin lol.
TheGrowler55 Yeah i was wondering where all the junkies were.
***** Well going by your comment your a West Ender, and like all west end people you seem to think that there isn't another place like it, I come from the South of the City, and we have great eateries and lot's of lovely places to visit including the Burrell collection in Pollok Park, all I was meaning is that 90% of Glaswegians don't stay in the West of the City and it would have been better given a view of the Whole City and not half boiled toffs with Kelvinside accents.
***** I've been a Black Taxi driver for over 30yrs, trust me they have more than there fair share of Snobs, I work anywhere in the City and believe it or not I work the West End a lot at the Week End, I don't have a problem with the West End but Isn't the be all and end all, now God's Country the Soutside that's different. Heh, Heh.
+TheGrowler55 Would a tourist video for London show gang areas in Tottenham? 'Why are ye showing the Royal Mile, show the scheme Bigbsby lived on, thats the 'real' edinburgh!' SAID NOBODY EVER - even though a tourist would be way more likely to get mugged in Edinburgh or especially London than Glasgow.
Ahhh my home town :)
Should go do a bit of shoppin in Iceland in govan. It's magic.
People drinking in the park? got to be sneaky about that one! ;-)
not unless you drink fast and put the wine in pepsi bottles XD
Dam I love reading the comments you Brits and Scots are so blunt it’s funny lol, love from the USA
@C.J MacDairmant yes I realize that now please forgive my ignorance
sarcastic?????
Scotland is love
Scotland is life
This is so Americanized video - talking about Glasgow without mentioning its football scene.
thucydides Neo n
americans could care less about soccer
Good.
What happened to " Wee mental Davey " and all of that ?
Julian Trejo Pascual This is the west end of Glasgow, where affluent Glaswegians live. You'll find "wee mental davey" outside of the west end.
what is the song at 1:49? It sounds so familiar but cant figure out what it is
Its sad for the kids growing up with out the arches. It was the best club in the world
What do you mean re-emerged Glasgow was always a vibrant place
I LIVE IN GLASGOW!!
I live in Glasgow
If they don't drink bucky in this I'm gone Mental!
Think i counted 3 accents i recognised as Glaswegian at a push !!
How much does a dram (a whisky serving) in a Glasgow pub, such as 'the pot still', cost? So I won't have to ask, if I'd ever go there, as I hate doing that. Do whisky pubs offer a whisky menu with prices written down on it?
Glasgow is fine. Especially on a sunny morning or late afternoon when the sun is showing off the red sandstone architecture around and especially above you. Try that around Glasgow University, Kelvingrove Art Gallery or Peoples Palace and tell me Glasgow isn't beautiful! Always look up from across the street and you see marvels most people miss.
I've started (retirement gives you some benefits!) trying to produce little walk about CZcams films to showcase bits of Scotland worth seeing.
I know this is an advert, but hardly a genuine Glasgow voice to be heard in this video. Trying to make Glasgow look like its full of beardy hipsters.
It is full of beardy hipsters.
I'm Snaney They’re showing the nicer parts of Glasgow, the posh bits, the CBD, if they showed the suburbs where all the crime and drug gangs are then the tourism wouldn’t go up any higher, would it?
I’m Snaney one has to remember, there is more than one dialect in a city the size of Glasgow.
One has been blessed to have lived in Glasgow’s premiere West End most of ones life. I suggest you take the time to ponder your comment, then perhaps edit it. This will show the world there is indeed more than one face to my wonderful city.
Take care pet.
F
Fyodor48 Alyosha wit
A lot of the Glasgow uni accent
Anyone else from Glasgow never had heared of Grosvenor cafe?
4:30 whats the club music
Yes, that's right. This film is very city centre and the West End
Cannae listen tae they kid on accents any longer man, apache!
i love glesgaw!!!!!
Where's the Toby Jug and bottles of Kronenberg for 97p.
This is the nice wealthy part of Glasgow. The real Glesgae is gritty and decayed with poverty and crime. Still it's hame.
HEY! Thats only easterhoose
You missed Saracen Street out 🤔
Obviously various takes on Glasgow. We are only people like everybody else and no doubt have our issues that, by and large, shouldn't affect visitors to whom people all over the world tend to be friendly, especially if the visitor makes an effort too. Check my climbing videos to see the real west of Scotland people enjoying themselves, and to see places to go about Glasgow (and Ediburgh which is also nice...) ;)
Haha don't knock being up on roofs! But on our mountains are better places for lunch stops. :)
This is fake af, this isn’t Glasgow 😂😂 wheres Leo the silent raver? Where’s that band with drums that stand outside New Look? Where’s the junkies? Where’s the neds? People make Glasgow
Friendly city? Ahh yes, the famous Glasgow Kiss.
Going in on the train to Glasgow Central you can't help but notice grubby buildings with fowlege growing out the brickwork and other eyesores. The local council should be ashamed of themselves.
didn't even hit Sauchihall st?? wtf
Yer bawz
24 hour Asda in Govan at midnight on a weekend is always entertaining.
🤣
this is just the western flash bit of glesga
IT DOES RAIN IN GLASGOW BUT IT IS A FANTASTIC CITY WITH GREAT PEOPLE & CHARACTERS .
And for the more adventurous; go to an Old Firm Derby between Celtic and Rangers. Crazy. :)
A sunny day, drinking in the park - Glasgow seems lovely!
Except... it's against the law to drink outside, anywhere. Plus, sunny days like that are like 3 per year.
Glasgow is a great city though, and is definitely friendly.
3 per year is very optimistic... :p
Clandestine public drinking is a skill honed over many years. Several easily concealed half bottles instead of a big one is lesson one...
This is not a true representation of glasgow.
Try 36 hrs in govan
🤣
3:15 scottish moby?
This must be how the wealthy enjoy Glasgow. Its a 'little' bit different for everyone else.
Jesus the accent on the women who owned the vintage clothes shop wtf was that!
The thick end of £7.00 for a pint of lager in MONO. £7.00 FFS. It's little wonder that people leave there looking as if they've just been mugged.
The shops are naff in Glasgow but the musical talent definitely is not
taps aff
Here's what happened. The New York times guys got lots of free meals and made an infomercial about all the places that gave them free stuff.
Good film... READ THE REAL GORBALS STORY NEXT BRILLIANT BOOK 👍
The real Glasgow is a bit different than this - what we see here is the expensive, sanitised, artificial side, where those with money go to eat & drink, and as such, you're missing out on the good stuff...the real character of the city. This is not the Glasgow the vast majority of Glaswegians frequent...and enjoy.
Not the Glasgow i know this is all fur coat and no nickers i doubt i have been in any of these places have they never heard of Coias in the east end ? haha..
will we do a 36 hours of the REAL Glasgow soon?
Like the slums of pollokshields and calton? The point of tourist videos is to highlight the fun and easy side of a city. For a new comer this is a decent intro. And when they land in glasgow I'm sure they can find their way round to more unexpected delights
I have been to the cafe their Nutella donuts are dry
The American side of Glasgow lol.
ciara lives here :)
Yes I do
Yup took me 30 seconds before I cringed
Whit a Loada Pump
I’m sorry but this is a middle class version of glasgow. Where are all the junkies? Did they quarantine them during filming?
"This is not the real Glasgow" - Just because you live in some miserable estate on the edge of town doesn't mean everyone else does. Go and look at other places in the world and discover what true poverty is.
+C Mac To be honest 90% of the housing in glasgow is in some backward estate as someone who lived there i have to say it is one of the worst citys i have ever seen .
Biased hyperbole. 90% is a gross exaggeration. Even the most beautiful cities in Europe have vast areas of deprivation. The banlieues in Paris put most of Glasgow's estates to shame.
+C Mac I'm probably one of those people, in a poor scheme of Glasgow, it's a shame really.
Johnny Boy Only in certain areas. Every big city has it's poor areas and it's wealthy areas. You clearly know nothing about Glasgow.
Johnny Boy The worst areas of London have far more crime and drug problems than the worst areas of Glasgow.
If u go. South of Glasgow to Ayrshire IT THE REAL SCOTLAND
Glagia, is deed in watter...no longer Glasgow's mile better.
Glasgow is not the friendly place in Scotland
This has painted Glasgow as a hipster capital. Not representative.
Stick to coffee, chocolate and tea. Alcohol dries your brain and causes 8 different cancers, especially breast cancer in women. The Lancet is among the most important medical journals in the world and after rigorous scientific studies they have concluded there is absolutely no safe level for alcohol consumption. 2,000 years ago very watered down wine killed dangerous bacteria, but today there is no need for it.
3:36 Scottish Amy Schumer.
I literally can’t stomach muscles I’m Ethiopian
Hardly any are from Glasgow! Not even Scotland. Even tho I left 30yrs ago, I know the accent. What is this sorcery?! 🏴🇸🇭
I'm allergic to the cold, thistle and whitie, so not in my list of travel destinations
Roasters in this video
Random in CZcams algorithm 🤔
Didn’t make me remember how Glasgow used to be. West end is over rated. Better off going through to Edinburgh if too scared to leave the west end. Taxi to sub club on a Saturday night doesn’t count. Could have at least walked down from the west end through Glasgow ending in the sub club. Would see anything & everything on a Saturday night on sauchiehall street 😂
