Cardiff is the capital of, and largest city in Wales. The capital is known for having beautiful castles within its bounds, with Cardiff Castle perhaps the most famous of all. With plenty of restaurants and bars, you’ll also find many event and party venues in Cardiff, which are available for December and January parties even if they don’t explicitly advertise a Christmas offering. Cardiff is a city rich in history. You might have heard it called the City of Arcades, in reference to the large concentration of Victorian, Edwardian, and contemporary shopping arcades in Britain. Cardiff's culture can be seen in its national museums, the historic high street and a massive 76,000 seater stadium right in the heart of the city. No matter whether you like to spend your afternoons shopping or sightseeing, your evenings strolling along a beach or pier, enjoying a delicious Michelin star dinner or catching a show, Cardiff has something to offer everyone.
