Wales Things to Do Tips by lou31

Pen y Pass

This lookout is part of Snowdonia National Park. The views from here are spectacular. Especially on a sunny day like we had. There is a good size restaurant and gift shop there as well.

Snowdonia National Park

Snowdonia is to Wales as the Highlands are to Scotland. Eryri as it is locally known has some of the most spectacular scenery in Britain.
The park stretches over 213,200 hectares. It has within it's boundaries over 100 lakes and more than 90 hills and mountains. It is not hard to imagine the vistas and beauty of such a place.

Another good eaterie in Llangollen

The Smithfield Restaurant obviously did good lunches...and cheap too.
Roast lunches served daily. Only 6.95 pound!

Llangollen

Another view of Llangollen. This is the river that runs through the town.

Llangollen

This was to me the epitomy of a quaint Welsh village. It is actually an old market town in the Dee Valley. A bright and colourful little town with friendly people and lots of beautiful surrounding countryside.

Directions: Somewhere in the Dee Valley.
