What to do and see in Cathays, Wales: The Best Monuments & Statues
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!

Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
Located in Cardiff city centre, the Temple of Peace first opened in 1938 and stands out as the venue with a heart. It is a Grade II listed building, is home to the Welsh Centre of International Affairs (WCIA) and is recognised as a symbol of Wales' concern for international peace: all profits generated from booking the Temple's Marble Hall go straight back into the WCIA.

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.
4. Lord Aberdare Statue

Reviewed By PebbleL - Cardiff, United Kingdom
I don't know much about Lord Aberdare, hopefully someone more knowledgeable about Welsh history will add a review here, but I'm aware that he was the first president of Cardiff University. I have also read that he took a keen interest in the development of university education in Wales, but I don't know the specifics. Interesting statue to seek out if you happen to be in Alexandra gardens.
