Glasgow Central Station

Quest image

Ahem, Glasgow Central Station, the beating heart of Scotland's biggest city. It's like the Deadpool of train stations - it's got history, it's got character, and it's seen some stuff. You walk in and you're hit with that intoxicating blend of coffee, pastries, and just a hint of 'why did I take the 7:30 AM train?'

Best times to visit? Well, if you're a fan of the hustle and bustle, the morning and evening rush hours are a sight to behold. It's like watching a well-choreographed dance of commuters, tourists, and the occasional street performer. But if you're more of a 'let's avoid human contact' kind of person, midday during the week is your sweet spot. It's quieter, and you can actually hear yourself think.

And remember, no trip to Glasgow Central Station is complete without looking up. The architecture is like a love letter to the past, and it's absolutely stunning. So, grab a coffee, find a bench, and just take it all in. It's a Deadpool-approved experience.
