Wales
stretches 150 miles North to South and 50 miles from East to West. Most of its
2.8 million inhabitants live in the Southern quarter of the country. Wales has
rugged coastlines, mountain ranges, lush valleys and old fashioned market towns
which combine to give many attractive features. Cardiff was proclaimed capital of Wales in 1955, and is Europe's youngest capital city. Situated on the Bristol Channel, Cardiff has a proud heritage of being one of the great seaports of the world |
