Caption

Buchanan Street, Glasgow, running between Sauchiehall Street and Argyle Street, with its historical surroundings, is always bustling with Christmas shoppers, and has three major shopping malls: the Buchanan Galleries, Princes Square, and the St Enoch Centre.

Glasgow's city centre and grid system make it easy to navigate, much of the main shopping areas being completely pedestrianised - no cars among the stores, restaurants and many pubs.

This panorama was taken about 4.30pm in Royal Exchange Square, designated as the "Merchant City" area, on the last Saturday before Christmas Day as some last minute Christmas shopping takes place. This spot in Glasgow City Centre is a busy, but quiet haven where people can enjoy a drink sitting out, weather permitting.
