格拉斯哥(Glasgow)是蘇格蘭第一大城與第一大商港,位於中蘇格蘭西部的克萊德河(R. Clyde)河口,城市中心的地理座標為北緯55度52分,西經4度15分。行政上,格拉斯哥屬於格拉斯哥市(City of Glasgow)的管轄範圍,是蘇格蘭32個一級行政區(稱為統一管理區 (蘇格蘭)|統一管理區)底下的一個,長年以來一直是英國工黨的執政領域。
格拉斯哥市號稱是整個聯合王國底下除了倫敦與伯明罕以外,第三大的城市,但是關於這排名也有不同的意見,認為英格蘭北部的曼徹斯特才是英國第三大城。之所以會有這爭議,是因為格拉斯哥的中心都會區雖然的確擁有比較多的面積與人口,但曼徹斯特卻擁有更大的郊區,與較高的都會區、郊區人口加總。
基督教传教士圣姆格(Saint Mungo)於6世纪在此建立了教堂,为格拉斯哥日后发展立了基础。到了12世纪,格拉斯哥已有了相等于今日所谓城市的地位。1451年,格拉斯哥建立格拉斯哥大学。
在16世纪初,格拉斯哥已是重要的宗教与学术城市。当时,格拉斯哥也是苏格兰对美洲贸易的重要中心,商人从美洲大量输入美国烟草和加勒比海地区的蔗糖|白糖,然后再转售至不列顛群島和欧洲大陆的其他地方。1770年代克莱德河的加深使到较大的船只也可航行到河的更上游。这对19世纪格拉斯哥工业,特别是造船业的勃发有直接的关系。到了19世纪末维多利亚时代,格拉斯哥已有了“大英帝国第二城市” (Second city of the Empire)的美誉。据说,当时全世界的船舶|船只和火车大多都是在格拉斯哥制造的。
到了20世纪,因为1930年代大萧条和两次世界大战的影响,格拉斯哥的经济开始衰退。1970年代和1980年代初更为格拉斯哥历史的黑暗时期。当时,重工业的没落导致失业率高涨和生活水准的低落。
自1980年代中期,随着许多金融公司的迁入,格拉斯哥的经济有了明显的复苏。1990年,格拉斯哥被选为欧洲文化之都,吸引了更多游客到格拉斯哥。1999年,格拉斯哥被命名“建筑与设计之城”。2003年,又被选为“欧洲体育之都”。
格拉斯哥地下铁(Glasgow Subway)启用于1896年12月14日,是续伦敦和布达佩斯后,历史上第三悠久的地下铁系统。除了1977年进行的大事现代化改进,格拉斯哥地下铁路线(请见图)基本上并没有扩展到。其中的原因是由于格拉斯哥地质上属坚硬岩石,使到隧道挖掘工作困难。如今,格拉斯哥地下铁系统每年有1330万至1470万的-
