What foods will you sample on a trip to Cardiff City Center?

We used TripAdvisor to identify attractions to see once we had our short list of cities identified for this UK trip.  We selected Cardiff to be our hub in Wales.  That would make it easy to get to several places in Wales, including Raglan, Barry Island, and key attractions we selected in Cardiff.

We leveraged “DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Great Britain” to identify specific attractions during our trip.  The book helped to identify walking tours and museums and times when particular places are open to visitors.  We recommend purchasing a book similar to this one when planning a more extended trip.

Art shares a fact check update from Episode 3 on Virginia Cherrill.

Cardiff Wales is a gem of the UK that is well worth your travel consideration.  We hope these episodes inspire you to consider this great Welsh town.
