Glasgow stands on the River Clyde and is Scotland's most populous city, once among the busiest shipbuilding centres in the world. In the post-industrial era it rebuilt its identity around museums, architecture and music: the big collections such as Kelvingrove and the Riverside are free to enter, and the city has held the UNESCO City of Music title since 2008. The buildings of Charles Rennie Mackintosh give it a visual language of its own. easyJet, Corendon and SunExpress fly direct from Antalya and Dalaman; there is no direct service from Istanbul, so that route connects.
