What to expect
A truly spectacular Castle, sitting proudly right in Cardiff City Centre imperiously looking over the city. Whilst not being the tallest or largest structure in the City, it is is still one of the largest buildings and dominates the surrounding area.
The Principality is a 74,500 all seater multi use arena in the heart of Cardiff City Centre. It is the 2nd largest stadium in the world with a retractable roof. Only the 80,000 capacity AT&T Stadium in Texas, home of the Dallas Cowboys, is bigger. There are however, a couple of stadiums in America whose capacity is expandable above the Principality’s Capacity. Nothing anywhere else in the world comes close. Krestovsky Stadium (66,881) in St Petersburg Russia, is the closest outside North America in terms of capacity.
Once the site of the Worlds busiest Coal Exporting Dock. The former docklands were redeveloped into a world class leisure and hospitality area during the 1990's, centred around a 500+ acre fresh water lake
Cardiff Bay Barrage took 7 years to build. In the 1990’s, it was one of the largest civil engineering projects in Europe. At a cost of £120m the Barrage opened in 2001. Sitting on the mouth of the Severn Estuary, Cardiff experienced the same tidal ranges as the rest of the Severn Estuary, which are the 2nd highest in the world. This meant that when the tide went out, large mudflats were exposed. Cardiff was susceptible to flooding from tidal surges. The construction of the Barrage helped solve both these issues. First it stopped water going out with the tide, making the area more attractive, usable and likely to attract investment, whilst also protecting Cardiff from flooding by keeping tidal surges out. The Barrage created a 2 square kilometre freshwater lake. Its construction started the regeneration of Cardiff Bay and Cardiff as a whole. Today the Barrage also provides a walk and cycle path linking Penarth and Cardiff.
Constructed in the 12th Century, Llandaff Cathedral was built over an existing church. Believed to be an ancient Celtic church, of unknown age. It is one of two Cathedrals in the Cardiff, and is located in Llandaff, a City within a City.
Cathays Park - Cardiff Civic Centre
Cathays Park is Cardiff’s Civic Centre, and contains many impressive and Listed Buildings. Formerly part of Cardiff Castle grounds, the land was purchased by Cardiff Council from the 3rd Marquess of Bute in 1898. The Marquess stipulated as a condition of the sale, that the land could only be used for civic, cultural and educational purposes, and the avenues were to be preserved. Alexandra Gardens is one of 3 Gardens located within Cathays Park. It is the largest of the 3 and contains formal lawns, with island flowerbeds and trees. The Welsh National War Memorial, is in the centre of the park, and was unveiled in 1928. Since then a number of other smaller memorials have been added to the park including one for the Falklands and Spanish Civil Wars.
St Fagans National Museum of History
One of Wales' best and favourite visitor attractions. Set in the grounds of an Elizabethan Manor House, St Fagans has a collection of historic buildings from all over Wales, that have been lovingly reconstructed, brick by brick and tell the history of Wales across the centuries.
Nestled in the hills to the North of Cardiff, overlooking the Welsh Capital, Castell Coch is a magical fairy tale castle that has been loved by locals and visitors alike for over 100 years
