Cardiff epitomises “Cool Cymru “ - Europe’s youngest capital city is proud of a reputation for fun, friendliness and cultural harmony. Cardiff Bay (previously Tiger Bay & surroundings ) has seen massive investment. The Welsh Assembly Government is based here and the Bay contains chic housing, restaurants and shops . The architecturally spectacular Millenium Arts Centre is bilingually inscribed “In These Stones Horizons Sing “ – it’s true throughout Cardiff. Visit the Norwegian church refurbished as an artspace and café or be pampered at the world famous St David’s Hotel & Spa . Then take a train to the art- deco central station or a bus or river taxi to the city centre At the city’s heart is Cardiff Castle – opulent, gilded surfaces, esoteric artefacts and enchanting murals. Even the castle walls are decorative. Popular legend says that if the city is in peril, the stone animals will awaken leaving their sentinal posts. The Castle Grounds link to Blackweir Park and Sophia Gardens - home of The Welsh National Institute for Sport , Glamorgan Cricket Club and the start of the Taff Trail - miles of “green lung “ corridor for walkers and cyclists.Check out the campsites here or guesthouses on Cathedral Road . ( Cardiff has two Cathedrals by the way ! ) Adjacent to the Castle is the Victorian neo-classical civic centre, containing The Law Courts, City Hall and Museum which holds a fine art collection, diverse exhibitions including a mini coalpit. This is “University Land” full of pubs, bars and deli's catering to student needs. In winter the Gorsedd Gardens opposite are flooded creating a public skating rink with rides, ferris wheel and amusement stalls. Shoppers love the major department stores and malls (St David’s 2 will be one of Europe’s largest). Even better are the networks of covered arcades. In the Castle Arcade, start at one end, sample a traditional Welsh breakfast, visit Clare Groves for buttons, pick up books, surfwear, cheese and crystals, get your hair cut, buy your martial arts equipment and eccentric clothing before you emerge, senses reeling, at the other less than a hundred yards distant. Walking down Westgate Street leads to the Millenium Stadium. The Welsh are passionate about rugby and when this place isn’t filled to capacity on a match day it is probably full of music fans at a world class concert. Cardiff has something for everyone - visit soon!
