    My favourite corner or queen's Park

    A lot of work has been done by the Friends of Queens Park this Summer, to bring the Scottish Poetry Rise Garden back to it’s former glory.

    Beautiful park. (Queens Park)

  • 5/5 Bernard K. 2 years ago on Google
    Small but quiet place to chill out for a bit.

  • 4/5 Stephen T. 3 years ago on Google
    Not large, but worth a visit when in Queens Park. I look up the poets and their works whilst sitting in the park

    Relaxing area in Queens Park. A few benches to take in the surroundings. There is plenty to see and do around here too

  • 5/5 John N. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably the best rose garden dedicated to Scottish poetry in the whole Southside - if not all of Glasgow. Covering several centuries - and poets writing in Scots, Gaelic, and English - there's bound to be something here for every rose-loving poetry fan.

    Nice place to chill and watch the world go by, or just chill and relax.

    According to Google I visited here 5 days ago. I had no idea it was called this. Stayed here all my life too. I think some Shawlands hippy gave it this name recently

    Rose Garden with many dedications to Scottish Poets through the ages. The garden is okay, but there's not much in bloom thanks to Glasgow summers. It's a nice idea though.
