Which river flows through the Scottish city of Glasgow?

The story behind the answer

Clyde is correct because the River Clyde runs through Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city, and empties into the Firth of Clyde on the west coast. The city’s growth and global reputation were built on “Clydeside” shipyards, which produced famous liners like the Queen Mary and QE2, making the Clyde synonymous with Glasgow’s industrial heritage.

To avoid mix-ups: the Tay flows through Perth and Dundee (it’s Scotland’s longest river), the Dee runs through Aberdeen (Royal Deeside), and the Tweed marks part of the Scotland–England border. Memory tip: think “Clydeside” and “Clydebuilt” to link Glasgow with the Clyde.
