17 Cities Of The Future

1 SCOTLAND

GLASGOW

Glasgow, Scotland’s vibrant heart, has evolved over the last couple of decades to become Britain’s most intriguing metropolis. With its stately Victorian architecture and artistic heritage, the city is home to museums, art galleries, and proud institutions such as the Scottish Opera (scottishopera.org.uk), the Scottish Ballet (scottishballet.co.uk), and the National Theatre of Scotland (nationaltheatrescotland.com). But on the other hand, this smart city also seamlessly blends its rich history with cutting-edge technology and eco-friendly initiatives. Glasgow’s commitment to sustainability is evident through its ambitious renewable energy projects, such as wind farms and solar arrays. The city’s transport system is a marvel, boasting electric buses and a well-connected subway network. Green spaces like the Glasgow Green and the Botanic Gardens add a natural touch to the urban landscape, with the pristine River Clyde running through it, while the reimagined Clyde Waterfront stands as a symbol of regeneration, with modern housing and commercial spaces revitalising the riverbanks. glasgow.gov.uk
