Cardiff, United Kingdom

Cardiff United Kingdom

The capital of Wales, considered the youngest capital of Europe, is a lively metropolis, modern and Victorian, in which contemporary buildings coexist in harmony with old nineteenth century buildings. Cardiff is an exquisite blend of the old and the new. Cardiff castle stands proudly on the edge of an immense park while a display of architectural fantasy adorns the streets of Georgian houses. The biggest tourist attraction in town is the eleventh century castle built on an ancient Roman castle. Today the castle is a real mix of styles and buildings, being perhaps the most prominent the Norman tower. Climb to the top of the tower for a priceless view of the city. Cardiff Bay, the city’s port, has been fully restored and has reunited the Welsh capital with the sea. Cardiff Bay has spectacular buildings, including the Millennium Stadium and Millennium Centre. The Millennium Stadium is the international sports village and the Millennium center is the cultural hub of the city with exciting plays and operas. The city also has world-class museums and galleries. The National Museum of Wales has collections of natural history and geology, plus an art gallery. St Fagan’s Museum is an open-air collection of re-erected historic buildings brought in from all over Wales. It offers a walk through Welsh history from Celtic times to today. Wales' capital city is a vibrant destination, replete with stylish bars, restaurants, hotels and historical attractions that will not disappoint visitors.
