Top 10 Places To See In Wales (Travel Video)

Wales is a country rich in history and culture, with a beautiful landscape that ranges from the rugged mountains of Snowdonia to the golden beaches of the Gower Peninsula. The country's capital city, Cardiff, is a lively and cosmopolitan place, while Wales's other cities, such as Swansea and Newport, offer a more traditional Welsh experience. There are also plenty of castles to explore, as well as Roman ruins and medieval churches. Here's a look at the best places to visit in Wales.

Wales is a beautiful country ❤

Wales forever! Greetings from Serbia!

[@izlandsisterztv8792]

Was in South Wales for a week last week and couldn’t believe how beautiful it was there

[@Wankshaftsbury]

I wish I lived in Wales. Obviously it doesn't always look like this, as usually it's covered in mist and rain, but I love mist and rain!

[@Entername757]

No don’t come to wales. It’s a shithole

[@eileenpritchard9154]

Well I don't think you would like the Welsh ASSEMBLY, they are DESTROYING this country.

[@Wankshaftsbury]

@@iKandy1992 Sounds good to me, and I love the Welsh accent

[@Red_Snappa]

Another Wales dweller here.... I disagree with the other opinion... but I _also_ agree with some of it. It really IS great - but is also criminally neglected by UK tourists. It also IS great for a visit... *but* is also lovely to live in - unless you regularly have to travel from North-South (or vice versa) The plus side is, if you're visiting and getting from A to B.....ASAP, isn't a priority, you then have the delightful West Coast scenic route to 'endure' at your leisure!

I'm a Londoner living in mid wales and I am still in awe of the beauty and dramatic scenery that is wales.

WOW! That first beach looks exactly like the Bondi Beach sea pools in Sydney from that angle. 0:42. Magic

Don't forget PORTMEIRION a stunning Italianate designed village in North Wales,of coloured buildings and antique columns collected from all over the world.Made famous by Patrick McGoohan in the tv series, The Prisoner!!

[@HeatherMyfanwyTylerGreey]

Unless I fell asleep Swansea our 2nd city was not even mentioned, nor the Gower, Mumbles: St David's in Pembroke is named because of our Patron Saint and is gorgeous and worth a mention a the smallest city. The Gorgeous little University town of Lampeter is always omitted. The University i designed around the Oxford Uni Quadrangles if I am not mistaken and is worth seeing.

[@vanmanwales1590]

Tenby.

[@jezzaqc]

Swansea was mentioned briefly in the first couple of minutes. Strangely and little know though Swansea is not the second city of Wales but the third. Brecon is the first city of Wales and has been so since time immemorial (ie before 1179), then Cardiff was made a city and is now the capital city, then Swansea, then St. David’s ;”(later than most people realise in 1994), then Newport, then St. Asaph and lastly Wrexham. Always handy info for a pub quiz!

[@heidigresh2743]

The music was annoying. Photography was good but I was not sure what I was looking at because there were no titles.

[@clivethomas9816]

Great video about the places. Great shame that the pronunciation of Welsh place names was butchered.

We’ve recently edited this video into a top 5 with a different narrator: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqGsgKh7hNNkrtk Have a look at that one & tell us if we’ve done a better job 👍

[@nicholasjones7312]

Terrible pronouciations of the Welsh words and placenames. 😡

[@allenjenkins7947]

Ask for directions with those pronunciations and you're likely to end up right back in England 😂.

[@patriciathomas9749]

There is also south and west Wales too

[@davidgbevan4765]

Wow born &bread in Wales until I was 21!🤔But have only visited 2 of Welsh attractions 😢Seen more of Australia,S.Africa & Canada 😤Embarrassed to not have visited More of my beautiful Home Lands 🙄😊

[@davidharris4062]

The museum at S Fagan’s is the Museum of Welsh Life, not Cardiff museum

[@Iworldtraveller]

Our research came up with the National Museum Cardiff (museum.wales/cardiff/), and the St Fagans National Museum of History (museum.wales/stfagans/ and www.visitwales.com/attraction/museum/st-fagans-national-museum-history-527739). Is it possible you're referring to another museum?

[@buddhastaxi666]

Please pronounce or attempt to pronounce Welsh placenames correctly. Welsh is an ancient language with its own unique alphabet.

[@davidharris4062]

Da Iawn

I hear this youtube-y music & immediately leave the video.

if you are going to claim to be an informed world traveller, please inform yourself of the correct pronunciation for these place names!

It still informs people that would never have known it was there so they can go visit most people can’t pronounce Welsh names get over it

[@MargaretMott]

Very good photography, but a shame about the misspelling and pronunciations ... too beautiful a country to do this disservice.

[@catylynch7909]

I wholly agree. I'm in the U.S., and looking forward to a trip the the UK, in late spring or early fall. This is a lovely presentation, visually. However, the names of the venues that are featured should be fully spelled, and superimposed on the screen. "Cardiff," is the only one that I understood, and had any hope of pronouncing. The lady who did the narration, sounds to be from the US, or Canada. It's impossible to know if the pronunciations were accurate.

[@MargaretMott]

@@catylynch7909 When you go to the UK, make sure you include a trip to Wales. It is an amazing country and my partner (who is British) and I have just moved back to Wales. Love it, love it!

The beach at the beginning where is this please? Not shown in video. Looks like Australia not wales

[@davidlally592]

And dont foget the most famous "Village" there, in N W Wales: Portmeirion.. ..BCNU..

Hi i came from wales angley i live in the hraet of angley 🤗

[@vanmanwales1590]

?

[@allenjenkins7947]

I much prefer Abertawe (Swansea) and the adjacent Gwyr (Gower), the first place in the UK to be designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. I'd certainly rather be there than Caerdydd (Cardiff). Aberdyfi (Aberdovey) would be no.2 on my list. No visit to Wales can be complete without a tour of the Rhondda. Perhaps North Wales and South Wales should be treated separately. There is an invisible border between North and South Wales, it is not shown on any map, but the locals know which side they're on. Apart from Wales, I've lived in Tasmania, which also has an unmarked border between North and South 😅.

[@weejackrussell]

You shouldn't have limited it to ten places as there are several fantastic places you haven't included.

[@mango4ttwo635]

Caernarfon Castle built late 13th century. Edward I not yet a twinkle in his grandaddy's eye in the 11th century

[@moyrawoodward2291]

It’s a shame that something produced to advise the public of top tourist destinations of Wales got the spelling of the town names incorrect

[@Iworldtraveller]

Sorry to hear that. The subtitles are generated automatically by KZbin, I'll see if I can override them.

[@vanmanwales1590]

The pronunciation was a bit erratic as well, but it was a good video.

[@christossolozabal1270]

What on earth is ''Lingaland'' referring to? - to what place it corresponds?

[@Iworldtraveller]

Can you help out with a timestamp? Otherwise it’s a guessing game.

[@christossolozabal1270]

@@Iworldtraveller it's the place in number 10. I googled it and nothing showed up

[@Iworldtraveller]

Thanks, it’s Llangollen. This video wasn’t narrated by a Welsh national, and the KZbin auto-generated captions struggle with the language.

dear god please pronounce the names appropriately. Wales has its own language and is rich in culture this video goes someway to debasing it.

[@theandyv8176]

The fact that there are no subtitles and all pronounciations are absolutely butchered, made it almost impossible to find the places mentioned in the video 😅😂

[@Iworldtraveller]

Thanks for watching. We uploaded subtitles with correct spellings for each place mentioned, unfortunately KZbin has chosen to use auto-generated subtitles from the audio track instead. As for the pronunciation, we will be re-doing this video with a different narrator later this year. I'm sure you're aware Welsh names are difficult to get correct for non-Welsh natives.
