With guided tours twice a day, Glasgow City Chambers is one of the top places to visit in the city that is absolutely free of charge. Our walking group had the great pleasure of having a guided tour, led by James who had lots of stories to tell about the history of the building, as well as some very up to date chat. We were very impressed with the ornate craftsmanship and skilful use of materials, from the mosaiced entrance hallway to the tiled corridors and grand marble staircases.
Unfortunately, as there was a meeting of the city councillors in progress, we couldn’t have the full tour of the whole building, but it gives us an excuse to visit again to see more in the future.
