Pick up a quick meal. Shish Mahal is open until 22:00, so you have plenty of time to eat before the sun goes down. It is a steady choice for Indian food and is just a short walk from the theatre.

Walk 12 minutes southwest to Kelvingrove Park. The park stretches west, giving you a clear view of the horizon. Find a spot near the bandstand or along the River Kelvin path. The sun sets toward the SW at 16:15, aligning perfectly with the park's western orientation.

Watch the sunset. The sky will turn as the sun dips below the western tree line. Stay for a few minutes to let the light fade.
17:00
End the evening with dinner. Walk 15 minutes back towards the centre to Ashoka. It is open until 22:30, making it a reliable spot for a late meal after your walk.
