Cardiff Vacations

Historic Cardiff, Wales is a city that built its wealth and reputation as a port city. While this town isn't as financially dependent upon its ports as it once was, Cardiff Bay and the city that surrounds it is full of restaurants, museums, and other attractions that Cardiff vacations can offer the intrepid traveler.

Major Attractions

There are Cardiff vacation packages that cater to all types of visitors. History buffs in particular will love exploring the historic castles in the area, plucked straight from the pages of a fairy tale. Castell Coch and Cardiff Castle both have medieval pedigrees dating back to the 11th century and are sure to get anyone in the mood to delve deeper into Wales' extensive history. For those that would rather connect to the culture and history of Cardiff and Wales through its art, there's no shortage of museums and other art centers located throughout the city. Pick up one of the Cardiff rental cars and bounce from museum to museum. Be sure to hit the open-air St. Fagans National History Museum, the National Museum Cardiff, and finally the Chapter Arts Centre, where you can enjoy a drink and a snack with your culture.

Recurring Festivals and Events

The Tafwyl Festival, which occurs in early July at Cardiff Castle, is a celebration of the Welsh language being spoken in Cardiff.
