Chester - Fantastic place to visit on route to Bodelwyddan (Day One).

Visit Chester! Its bewitching beauty and unique atmosphere make Chester one of Britain's most popular places for an unforgettable Visit. The ancient city is a truly breath-taking experience. Each chapter of Chester's history is etched into the very fabric of the city. Well, you are walking where Roman Legionaires marched to war, Viking raiders wreaked havoc and Norman invaders conquered Anglo Saxons.

Chester has the most complete city walls, the oldest racecourse and the largest Roman Amphitheatre in Britain, plus a 1000 year old Cathedral with Europe's finest example of medieval carvings - and of course the one and only 700 year old Rows galleries where shopping is a double delight.

Porthmadog

Known locally as ‘Port,’ Porthmadog is situated on the edge of The Snowdonia National Park on the estuary of the Afon Glaslyn as it runs into Tremadog Bay. It’s one of the largest towns in Snowdonia with a population of around 4,200. It has a good selection of shops which make it a natural base for holidaymakers who want to explore Snowdonia and the coastline of the Llŷn Peninsula.

 

 

Llandudno

Put simply, Llandudno is a classic of its kind. Llandudno’s sense of harmony extends to its geography. The main North Shore beach is perfectly framed by two headlands, the Great Orme and Little Orme. Over the former – linked by a spectacular Marine Drive carved into the sea-cliff, you’ll find a second beach, the West Shore. It was here that Alice Pleasance Liddell, who inspired ‘Alice in Wonderland’, holidayed as a child.

 

Caernarvon

Mighty Caernarfon is possibly the most famous of Wales’s castles. Its sheer scale and commanding presence easily set it apart from the rest, and to this day, still trumpet in no uncertain terms the intention of its builder Edward I. Begun in 1283 as the definitive chapter in his conquest of Wales, Caernarfon was constructed not only as a military stronghold but also as a seat of government and royal palace.

Nestled in the captivating landscape of North Wales, Caernarfon Castle boasts a rich history and striking architectural features that attract visitors from around the globe. The castle’s walls, specifically designed to embody the grandeur and authority of the world’s most renowned fortresses, were inspired by the imperial capital of the Roman Empire, Constantinople, as well as the mythical dream castle of Welsh lore.

Caernarfon Castle’s walls are not only remarkable for their dimensions and proportions but also for their ingenious defensive designs. With a thickness reaching up to 18 feet in certain areas, these formidable barriers were built to endure even the most potent siege weaponry. As visitors traverse the castle, they can observe the arrow slits, murder holes, and other strategic elements intended to safeguard the castle’s residents during times of conflict.

 

Venturing beyond the castle grounds, guests can immerse themselves in the rich history and diverse attractions of the town of Caernarfon. The 14th-century town walls serve as a popular draw, offering breath-taking views of the picturesque countryside. Another noteworthy site, St. Mary’s Church, captivates visitors with its imposing tower and historic architectural style.
