For more historic culture, the dramatic Cardiff Castle stands watch over the heart of the city, offering an atmospheric journey back in time. 

With numerous art galleries, museums and theatres, including the home of performing arts, the Millennium Centre, situated in the glamourous Cardiff Bay area, whether you’re after a matinée show, or something to finish the perfect evening, you’ll find it right here. 

If you’re seeking an adrenaline buzz, Cardiff International White Water or snowboarding should fulfil that drive, but if you prefer to watch, head for the impressive Principality Stadium, home of rugby, and host to cricket, football, boxing and so much more. 

If retail is your thing, the shopping in Cardiff is second-to-none, with the vibrant Queen’s Arcade and St David’s containing all the big name high street names and designer labels.
