Botanic Gardens, Glasgow, Scotland

Glasgow’s a tough city – “Glasgow Kisses” and “Glasgow Smiles” are nowhere near as friendly as they sound – but there are moments of beauty to be spotted amidst the economic and meterological depressions, like the wholly unexpected Botanic Gardens, nestled in a huge green park.  A complex of connected greenhouses replicate rainforests and other ecosystems, nurturing exotic trees and flowers. The highlight is a huge glass house ringed with classicist statues like this one.
