Glasgow Green, Public park in east Glasgow, Scotland
The green space extends along the north bank of River Clyde, featuring walking paths, sports facilities, and Victorian monuments across its grounds.
King James II granted this land to Bishop William Turnbull and Glasgow residents in 1450, making it the oldest park in the city.
The People's Palace museum within the park presents exhibits about Glasgow's social history through artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays.
