Caerphilly Castle is located in the town center and is one of the largest castles in Wales and the UK, second only to Windsor Castle. Unlike many other castles in Wales, Caerphilly Castle was not built during the period of Edward I's rule in Wales, but was constructed by a descendant of a Norman nobleman. The castle is surrounded by water, and one of its leaning towers is similar to the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, making it a very striking feature. In recent years, Caerphilly Castle has also become a popular filming location for various movies and TV shows, including the hit BBC series "Merlin".Caerphilly · 10.9 km from Cardiff

Castell Coch

Located on a hill near Cardiff, the Red Castle is a Gothic Revival style castle completed in the 19th century. It is also a place strongly recommended by the British Daily Mail to appreciate the autumn. The beautiful and dreamy castle is matched with the surrounding mountains and forests, which is as charming as a fairy tale world.Tongwynlais · 934m from downtown

New Theatre

New Theatre

3.3
New Theatre is located on Park Place in the city center of Cardiff, the capital of Wales. This theater was designed by London theater architects Ernest Runtz and Ford, built using brick and Bath stone, and has been an important performance venue in Cardiff since its completion. The theater was born out of an accident—the previous building was destroyed by fire, and Robert Redford hired designers to create this brand-new theater. The opening performance was Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night." Since then, the Welsh National Opera has long used it as its home base. The theater features three tiers of seating, creating an intimate viewing atmosphere close to the stage. Its programming covers a wide range of genres, including musicals, plays, dance, children's theater, and festive pantomimes. New Theatre has a simple and unadorned facade, while its interior has undergone multiple renovations and updates over the years. The building has been listed as a Grade II listed building, continuing to stage contemporary works while preserving its historical character.Castle · 464m from downtown

Absolutely amazing place. Quite amazing to see such a huge castle next to a town. It's beautiful to walk and makes great photo opportunities. Right next to Caerphilly bus station.
