Cardiff is a beautiful and intriguing city that blends medieval architecture and a two thousand year old history with lush green spaces and a legendary night life and entertainment scene. The capital of Wales is a lively port city, home to medieval castles, pristine parks, modern sporting arenas and a sparkling waterfront leisure district. It dates back to the Roman period when it was just a small settlement on the River Taff; it grew over the centuries to officially become a city in 1905 and has been the Welsh capital since 1955.
