The 10 Best Sights & Landmarks in Cathays, Wales
The Welsh capital may have begun its life as a Roman fort, but it's since become a bustling city. Where the fort once stood, Cardiff Castle has held court since the 11th century. It remains a central presence in the city, now full of lively art and music venues, hip boutiques, fun bars and modern hotels. Even with so many new and exciting things to see, the National History Museum is still the most visited attraction in Wales. Don't be the only visitor who plays hooky!

These charming animals are delightful and you can't help but love them, all different but adorable. Everytime I go to Cardiff I've got to go and see them. They are part of Cardiff heritage.

Reviewed By rogerhY5668ET - Cardiff, United Kingdom
Whilst entertaining our American friends this week, we took them to the city centre and in particular the City Hall. Most people will associate the city hall for Civic events and weddings, when in fact it is much more. This Council run building has a special selection of sculptures and paintings on the ground and first floors. Thee receptionist on the way in will be helpful if you need her assistance. Or alternatively you can just sit and admire the location. Previously there's been a peregrine falcon nesting on the roof.
8. Newman Hall
Established in 2015. Newman Hall was not founded for financial gain nor even as a philanthrophic enterprize. Newman Hall is a Catholic community at the heart of Cardiff City's rich and diverse University culture. It is a meeting place for students and academics alongside the Sisters of Nazareth and residents of Nazareth House, whose life we also share.
9. The Little Oratory
The Little Oratory is open everyday from 9am-9pm, it is home to the Cardiff Oratory community and the students of the University Catholic Chaplaincy. All are welcome to come and spend time in prayer.
