  • La Pasionara, Glasgow, United Kingdom
    The La Pasionaria monument, located in Glasgow, Scotland, is a statue dedicated to Dolores Ibárruri, the Spanish communist leader and political activist who was popularly known as "La Pasionaria" (The Passionflower). The statue depicts Ibárruri in a powerful and determined stance, holding a book and a rose in her hands. It was unveiled in 1979 in the Clyde Walkway, Glasgow, as a symbol of the city's solidarity with the International Brigade which fought against Franco and Fascism during the Spanish Civil War. What's remarkable about this status is that it was unveiled only 4 years after Franco had died and was in the same year that Britain elected Margaret Thatcher. This a good example of Glasgow being out of sync with Westminster consensus and for good reason too!

    The People's Palace in Glasgow is our personal favorite museum in Glasgow!

Inside, you'll find exhibits on everything from the city's social and industrial past to its cultural heritage, all presented in a fun and engaging way. There's a fascinating exhibit on some of the city's wealthy individuals who were engaged in industries tied to enslavement. We would have this museum down as a must-see!

    The Merchant City in Glasgow played a significant role in the transatlantic slave trade in the 18th and 19th centuries. The area was a hub for tobacco and sugar merchants, many of whom made their fortunes through enslaved Africans. Many of the merchants who lived and worked in the area were involved in the slave trade, and their wealth helped to finance the development of the city. The area's historic buildings and monuments, including the impressive tobacco lord's townhouses, still stand as a reminder of the city's involvement in the trade.

Excellent tour. Guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about his city. The bikes we used were great and the route was nice and easy on the legs. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the city or for people currently living in Glasgow to find out more about the hidden gems hiding in plain sight! A lovely way to spend a few hours.
