Very old town. The car shuttled through the streets of Bath. It turned out that this was the hometown of "Jane Austen", the female writer with "Pride and Prejudice". Simple, beautiful, leisurely, peaceful, elegant and quiet. It can only be said that it is difficult to describe its beauty. very good. There are many tourists, but it is very orderly. The air is also very good. It feels very pleasant to walk quietly.

Cardiff Castle is located in the heart of Cardiff downtown. It is a place which you must go if you visit Cardiff. It is one of the most beautiful castles in Wales. The park outside the castle is free admission. You can take lots of pictures of the outlook of the castle from there. The scenary around the castle area is very beautiful. The park itself is very big, you can take a boat there, for a short river cruise. The symbol of Wales, a dragon statue, is also located there.

A marvellous gothic church with an extremely interesting history. The Mary Redcliffe is just a short walk from the harbourside. Though it is old, the church has a lovely warm feeling. You are made welcome straight away by the volunteers who provide you with a laminated guide which you return before leaving. There are some fascinating stained glass windows and you must see the wooden altar shaped as a boat. This is a working parish church with a difference.

Prior Park Landscape Gardens The only highlight of this huge garden is the beautifully designed and unique corridor arch bridge as shown in the picture. Tourists will stop here to enjoy taking pictures from the lawn in all directions. It is a beautiful environment! Recommended ~

A piece of ruined ruins stands in the middle of the city, full of historical significance. The city of Swansea has not had much of a sense of existence, and the ruins of the castle are unvarnished, even if it has been there since 1296.

Absolutely amazing place. Quite amazing to see such a huge castle next to a town. It's beautiful to walk and makes great photo opportunities. Right next to Caerphilly bus station.

Imagine the daily life of the monks, the monastery is a beautiful ruin. Parking is charged near the parking lot, but parking fees can be reimbursed in the store when shopping. The contours show that the monastery was once huge and many are well preserved.

Wells Wells, the smallest city in England, is not far from Bath, and the bus is about an hour away. The city is niche enough to find her information at the location. However, in 1245 Bath and the Welsh Quarter merged, and by the 15th century Bath had lost its religious importance because of the presence of the small town Welsh. Until 2018, Wells had a population of only about 12,000, and from the Middle Ages it was the smallest city in England (only towns in the UK that were granted city status by the royal family could be called City). Wells was a city, and the cathedral was almost the only reason. Originally built in the early 8th century, the church was rebuilt in the early 13th century. The church was designed in accordance with the popular arch-vouching style at the time, which was later called the Gothic architecture. Wells Cathedral was the first church in the UK to be Gothic from the foundation to the roof. The eastern side of the choir seats retains 14th-century stained glass. Because of the movement of the 16th century Henry VIII closed the monastery and the two world wars, only three churches in England still retain the original medieval coloured windows (the other two were the Gloucester Cathedral and the Cathedral of York, which Henry III was crowned) But the 12th century Gothic style is just beginning to become popular in France, Wells architects obviously only heard of the arch coupon but have not learned how to build the arch coupon tall, "study" architects "Gothic" Wells Cathedral built a three-layer structure similar to the Roman-style small windows , accidentally recorded the evolution of Gothic style in the UK. The church does not need tickets, there is a counter at the door to accept voluntary fundraising. The church has a free one-hour explanation almost every hour. The grandfather of the volunteer on crutches told the history of the church with a colorful voice, and occasionally caused a burst of laughter.
