Sloans Market

Every Saturday and Sunday, the stretch between Buchanan and Argyle Streets gets flooded with independent local vendors, turning the lane into a colourful display of fresh produce, artisan gifts, jewellery, clothing and more. The central location makes it an easy stop for a city tour.

Shopping

Glasgow has three main shopping districts: the Merchant City, Buchanan Street, and the West End. The Merchant City’s beautiful old buildings now house street fashion shops, but also make room for luxury boutiques. The gigantic Buchanan Galleries and the pricey Princess Square are good for efficient shopping. West End is the place to go for those looking to shop around for artisan items in some of the local independent boutiques. One souvenir to be brought from Glasgow is a bottle of quality Scottish whisky.
