Greentraveller's Top Tip: Choose between Edinburgh or Glasgow as your starting point for this spectacular holiday: both excellent cities with green travel options. Did you know that Glasgow has more green space than any other city in Britain? So why not spend some extra time relaxing in one of the city's many parks. The most well-known is Glasgow Green, home to Nelson's Memorial and the People's Palace Museum, is a leisurely half hour stoll from the Central Train Station. Or if commencing in Edinburgh, why not enjoy a scrumptious meal of local and organic produce at Iglu Bar & Restaurant, centrally located and within walking distance from Waverley Train Station. We also recommend spending some time strolling through the picturesque Royal Botanical Gardens, one of the top green sights of the city.
