Buchanan Street
 Glasgow - A Portrait Glasgow from the Air
Buchanan Street is one of the main shopping thoroughfares in Glasgow.

It forms the middle stretch of Glasgow's famous "Golden Z"

 The "Golden Z" is the set of three main shopping streets

  in the centre of Glasgow.

The name originates from the alignment of the three streets:-

Argyle Street, Buchanan Street and Sauchiehall Street.

"Golden" comes from the millions made each year

  from these prime-location streets.

Buchanan Street is renowned for its Victorian architecture.
