Cardiff
 

Cardiff is the capital city of Wales and is located on the south coast where the River Taff joins the Severn Estuary. It is very popular with tourists with close to twenty million visiting each year.

With historic buildings, castles and cathedral, museums and galleries, parks and gardens, the city has much to enthrall the visitor.
 

The city has much to enthrall the visitor

High on the list of tourist attractions are Cardiff Castle and Castell Coch. The latter is a nineteenth century gothic revival extravagaza to the north of the city. Built as a country retreat for the Marquis of Bute, it has a fairy tale quality. St. Fagan's Open Air Museum has buildings from all over the country, depicting the lives of ordinary people from the early nineteenth century.

Dr. Who enthusiasts can visit the exhibition on the Discovery Quay in Cardiff Bay. It will remain open until 2017 and is certain to delight young and old alike.

Roath Park and Bute Park offer pleasant green spaces where you can enjoy a stroll amid flowers and shrubs, and perhaps take to the water on the boating lake. Take a boat tour from Cardiff Bay and visit Flat Holm Island. Try white water rafting at the International Sports Village; go horse riding in the beauty of the Vale of Glamorgan or hire quad bikes. Whatever your age or interests, you'll find plenty to do during your visit to Cardiff.
