| Page Views: 59 Last Visit to Cardiff: August, 1999 | Cardiff: Capital of Wales by Tom_Fields - last update: Mar 11, 2008 |
The city centre of Cardiff is full of beautiful buildings, including some of Europe's finest examples of Victorian architecture. These include Cardiff Castle, the Law Courts, City Hall, and the National Museum of Wales. |
|  | The Castle The one true must-see in Cardiff is the castle. Dating back to Roman times, it's been restored, modified, and embellished over the centuries. The guided tours give some of the long history of this landmark. |
|  | The Harbour My 1999 visit came during the early phases of the big harbour renovation. I'm sure that the place looks different now. As one of Europe's newer capitals, Cardiff is in the process of re-inventing itself. So some things will not be quite as I saw them. |
