Cardiff Castle

Cardiff Castle

Cardiff Castle is at the ready and quite accommodation to visitors. Seeing a huge castle and fortress right in the middle of Cardiff in these modern times is jarring. These size of the walled fortress wraps around an entire city block and more spectacular than the wee castle set like an opaque eerie gem on the inside. To get all the adventure in this city there are many hotels in Cardiff. While visiting, a cultural event to mark a type of local Earth day was going on. Compared to other castles, this one is not that exciting. The walled fortress has more personality and if you follow it to the corner ends you can see niches in the wall, they are remnants of fireplaces where the guards kept cozy on cold nights. The colorful Victorian clock tower too makes for a great photo op. Nearby at St.David outdoor mall; a trio of musicians was playing "Its cherry pink and apple blossom white" a 1960's popular tune by Perez Prado. Cardiff became a capital in 1955. Mingling the old and the modern is what Cardiff, Wales is all about. A visit to the glass library and columned Nat's History museum near Civic center is also recommended.
