Pictures of Wales
Wales is a land of great beauty. From the peak of Eryri ("Mount Snowdon") to the cymoedd ("vales") of South Wales, there are few lands with such dramatic scenery. Here is just a taste of Wales in pictures. |

The walled town of Conwy and its protective castle was built in the 13th century as part of Edward I's plan to control North Wales. Unlike most medieval towns, the modern town of Conwy has never expanded beyond those old walls. As a result, Conwy is a small town where it is possible to walk anywhere within a few moments. Of particular interest to visitors is Conwy Castle and Plas Mawr - a restored Elizabethian manor house in the heart of the town. |
