Slightly expensive, but worth the ticket price in the end (I’m glad I went in April on a weekday using a student ticket so I didn’t have to cough up the most expensive price). Upon my visit I spent at least 2 hours in the museum part, and though it was raining for the whole afternoon, since I got there in the morning it really wasn’t that bad. Would 100% recommend it to someone else visiting Bath for the first time.

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.

Loved every aspect of this museum. Firstly, it doesn't feel like just one museum. There is an actual SS Great Britain exhibition, with so much to learn about the ship, before even stepping foot on it.

Really interesting museum. Friendly staff. Quite small but provides a lot of information about Georgian Bath.

For a history lover, this is a wonderful place to visit. The people working here know their history and want to share that knowledge. It is mostly outdoors so try to go when it's not raining.

Pleasant enough way to spend a couple of hours. Went primarily to see the paintings but (and of course this is entirely a matter of personal taste) there wasnt a lot to rock my boat and not a lot of range. Some of the pottery was quite interesting but could have been better displayed. The natural history section on the ground floor was rather more interesting than expected- not too "dry"

The Glastonbury Abbey in the heart of Glastonbury is the site of legendary King Arthur and Queen Gui Nivir. The stone tower on the hilltop half an hour's walk from the abbey is said to be the gateway to the mysterious kingdom of Avalon. There is a paid parking lot on the side of the monastery, and there are plenty of parking spaces. There is a small bus called Tor Bus in the parking lot, which runs every half an hour and can go to the foot of the hill. It is recommended to take the bus to Tor, because there is no parking lot within a half-hour walk around Tor. Strong feet, love walking travel friends make another argument. Standing in the courtyard of the monastery, you can see the tall Tor, so don't worry about getting lost.

Located at the junction of the Bristol Canal, next to a ferry terminal and a bridge across Queen's Square, it can be said that traffic is still very convenient. The building retains the feeling of riverbank industrial relics, looks rich in a certain history, here is more of some vehicle parts display, reflecting the development of the city in the industrial period, but the layout effect and scale are much smaller than Manchester.
