Cardiff

A quote from the 'Lonely Planet Guide'

• A sports-mad pocket dynamo of a town, with handsome buildings and parkland to boot. Cardiff is small enough to be friendly and big enough to entertain.Sport is at its heart (the Millennium Stadium looms large) and Cardiff Bay gleams with restaurants and civic majesty. With Victorian-era castles and parks, it's a capital the Welsh can be proud of.

• Cardiff is a neat place to base yourself - it's surrounded by interesting sites and transport links are thorough. Rugby is Cardiff's most popular form of entertainment, but there's also theatre, an arts centre and a pop arena for those who want to avoid the scrum.
