Cardiff Castle
Heart of the city
Back to Cardiff Castle
Cardiff is at the ready and quite accomadationg to visitors.Seeing a huge castel and fortress right in the middle of Cardiff in these modern times is jarring.Thes size of the walled fortress wraps around an entire city block and more spectacular than the wee castle set like an opaque eerie gem on the inside. While visiting, a cultural event to mark a type of local Earth day was going on. Compared to other castles,this one is not that exciting.

Yes, the decor sucks inside, but, I liked the castle. Much more plesent to visit on a warm day as the insides are quite chilly! The grounds on the outside are the nicest, in the summer many people take their lunches from the nearby resturants over there to eat. Grounds behind the palace and the city's meuseum are very nice too. Tour of the castle is about an hour long. Well worth the trip, however, it's not something I feel I'd have to repeat!

Yesterday, I accompanied a teacher and a class of 5-7 year-olds on a trip to Cardiff Castle.

Most exciting thing about this place was the door marked 'exit' at the end of the visit. Cold and damp with an aroma of rotting corpses about the place. No hot girls and no choc ices available in the gift shop. Made even worse by my hardcore hangover from a crazy party the night before.

Nice castle right at city center. But one visit is enough. Prepare to spend ~1hr in it.
