Scotland’s tallest building, the 127m high Glasgow Tower adjacent to the Science Centre at Pacific Quay, has reopened to the public, offering some of the most beautiful views over the city it’s possible to get without craning your neck out of an aeroplane window. The tower - the only structure in the world which fully rotates through 360 degrees - has had an uneven few years due to various structural hold-ups, but is fully functional again. It takes two and a half minutes to get up to the top by lift, although there are 500 stairs if you’d rather . . .
