Overzicht
Deze tour geeft je een compleet overzicht van de geschiedenis, cultuur, geografie en architectuur van Cardiff. De hoofdstad van Wales is een jonge stad, maar ook een fascinerende plek vol groen, kastelen, waterwegen, Victoriaanse en Edwardiaanse pracht, gesmeed rond een sterke, groeiende Welshe identiteit.
Cardiff zou niet bestaan zonder de invloed van zijn kasteel, terwijl het moderne Cardiff niet zou bestaan zonder de ontwikkeling van de dokken. Door deze tour te kiezen, ontdek je hoe de twee delen van de stad elkaar aanvullen en hoe ze ons de stad gaven die we vandaag de dag hebben.
