East Kilbride (; Scottish Gaelic: Cille Bhrìghde an Ear [ˈkʲʰiʎə ˈvɾʲiːtʲə əɲ ˈɛɾ]) is the largest town in South Lanarkshire in Scotland, and the country's sixth-largest locality by population. It was also designated Scotland's first new town on 6 May 1947. The area lies on a raised plateau to the south of the Cathkin Braes, about eight miles (thirteen kilometres) southeast of Glasgow and close to the boundary with East Renfrewshire. The town ends close to the White Cart Water to the west and is bounded by the Rotten Calder Water to the east. Immediately to the north of the modern town centre is The Village, the part of East Kilbride that existed before its post-war development into a New Town. East Kilbride is twinned with the town of Ballerup, in Denmark.

The Village is the oldest part of East Kilbride in South Lanarkshire, Scotland, dating back to well before its designation as a new town in the mid-20th century. Notable landmarks include the East Kilbride Parish Church dating from the 1770s, the Village Theatre and the railway line to Glasgow which terminates at East Kilbride railway station (plus the path of the former continuation of the line towards Hamilton). The Category A listed Dollan Baths are situated in the Town Centre Park which separates the Village from the central area of the town including the indoor East Kilbride Shopping Centre. Of a more traditional character in comparison to the modern facilities in 'the centre', the Village hosts several small pubs, restaurants, hairdressers, cafes, tanning salons and shops. In the oldest part of The Village there is a cobbled street and a large pub, the Montgomerie Arms, the building for which dates back to the 1650s – the "loupin' on stane", used by inn patrons for mounting their horses, still stands outside the premises. East Kilbride Thistle F.C.'s home ground and social club, the Show Park, is also located in the area. Nearby residential neighbourhoods are Calderwood, East Mains and West Mains, which also have some buildings pre-dating the construction of the new town in the 1950s and 60s but were greatly expanded in that era to surround the Village. East Kilbride High School (Known as the old Village High School) was built in 1880 and closed in 1984. Until 2008, it was the home of South Lanarkshire College when it was sold by the college to Tulloch Homes who then demolished the school to make way for new 89 homes – new facilities for the college were built further east within the town.

Cathkin Braes is an area of hills to the south east of the city of Glasgow, in Scotland. It lies to the south of the districts of Castlemilk, Fernhill and Burnside, and to the east of Carmunnock. Rising to over 200 m (660 ft) in elevation, it includes the highest point in the Glasgow City area. It was a rallying point in the Radical War. It includes The Big Wood and Cathkin Braes Park Woodland, both areas of mature beech, sycamore and oak trees. In addition there is grassland, heath, hedgerows and wetlands. These natural areas provide foraging habitat for a number of species, including kestrels and owls. A number of mountain bike trails have been constructed in the area. These were used for the 2013 British National Mountain Biking Championships, and was the venue for mountain biking at the 2014 Commonwealth Games. These trails include one orange, two red, and one blue. There is also a skills park and pump track at the bottom of the hill. The skills park includes drop off practise, jump practise and rock roll practise. Since 2013, a single 3 MW wind turbine – 125 metres (410 ft) in height including the blades – has been in place at the brow of the Braes, just inside the Glasgow City boundary (a trig point and transmitter station a short distance to the east are within South Lanarkshire). Due to its prominent location, the turbine can be seen from across the city. It is unclear if more are planned for the area, with subsidy funding for onshore windfarms cut by the UK Government in 2015, although local bodies were supportive of further projects.The vista of the city from its summit was used as the original title card for the police drama Taggart.
