Llangollen
Upon the banks of the River Dee, Welsh town Llangollen sits patiently, lazing around in its own tranquility. For a taste of the peace, hop aboard their steam train and enjoy as the world rolls past your windows. Explore local abbeys in the Dee Valley and if the timings are right, align your visit with a popular Llangollen festival - from food festivals to fairy festivals (yes, you read it right), they have more than a few choose from. For the hikers, tick Welsh terrain of your list and plan an expedition through the Berwyn Mountains, or for those who like their pace a little more on the gentle side, peruse Victoria Promenade and have a picnic on the bandstand. This UNESCO World Heritage Site welcomes you.
