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.

The castle is situated high on the hill overlooking Mumbles and is definitely worth a visit. There are some concrete paths to get into the area, but in fact the surroundings of the castle can be quite muddy. Some parts of the ground are a bit steep and slippery. The exterior walls are completely intact but there aren't many inside castles. Celebrations, battle decrees and more are sometimes held. There is no actual parking in the castle area, but you should be able to park for free for an hour on the way to the castle.

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.

Weobley Castle is an abandoned castle, it is not interesting, I don't like to see the art of ruins, I prefer the nearby scenery, it is very natural, and the birds and flowers are ~ suitable for picnics!

Loughor Castle There are many ancient castles in this area, so suitable for taking pictures! Especially suitable for the shooting method of the large wide angle, shocking and unique, the lawn is also very lush ~ Overall it is worth recommending ~

The castle excursion is expensive, the most interesting is trying on all the clothes, although less than twenty miles from Swansea, it is a long drive, the entrance and parking is a steep hillside, and the ticket office (and gift shop) is located in the South End, Actually the only intact part of the castle, built in the 16th century, still can see the promenade windows and the huge South East Tower, once six floors.

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.

小锦锦
Pembroke Castle: The most unmissable castle in the UK is located in Wales, England. Why is this castle so admired in the UK with such a large number of castles? Because it was the place where Henry VII was born, it may not be well understood that Henry VII was the first King of Tudor and had a very important place in British history. So the castle became distinctive and carried extraordinary significance. In fact, it was abandoned, about 100 years ago, after a large-scale renovation, it was only once again to meet the tourists. When we walked in here, we couldn't help but sigh its majesty, and we could still feel the vicissitudes of the everywhere. Although the partially collapsed towers are a thousand holes, they add a heavy feeling of the history of the castle, and it does not give us a sense of dilapidation. This castle is like an old man watching history, it witnessed the blood and blood of Ziyu's succession, and also witnessed the changes and changes in history. [Intimate reminder] In particular, I would like to remind everyone that the castle has two free explanation tours a day. The narrator will be particularly patient to explain the history of the castle, and the stories that have happened here, it is worth listening to. Because, for everyone to explain are retired history teachers, they retired here to play the after-heat, every explanation with full enthusiasm, can not wait to tell the tourists who come from afar what they know. Remember the time for two free trips: 11:30am and 1:45pm!
