What to See in Cardiff, Wales

Share/Bookmark

Cardiff is a city of attractions, sport, culture and entertainment. Within the few square miles of the city-centre alone, you’ll find a wealth of things to do. Dominating the city centre is Cardiff Castle, a remarkable site with a history that spans over 2000 years. The Bute Park is a large park at the river Taff and directly next to the castle. It’s named after the Bute family, whose gardener Andrew Pettigrew created the layout of the park. In Cardiff Bay the Wales Millennium Centre stands next to the Grade 1 listed Pierhead building. The Norwegian Church, where children’s author Roald Dahl was christened, is now an arts centre and cafe with a Nordic flavour. The Millenium Stadium mainly is a rugby stadion, but of course other matches and events take place there too.
