Walk through the Scottish Design Galleries in Kengo Kuma's cliff-like building on the river, including Charles Rennie Mackintosh's restored Oak Room.

Why it's a good date: The permanent galleries are free, so an hour here is easy to fit in, and the building alone is worth the trip. Big exhibitions cost extra, and the café looks out over the Tay.
