It was misty, when we got near the top, the mist cleared and seeing the green valleys below was the most breathtaking, beautiful sight I had seen up to that point.

[@daijay9084]

Some years ago my father was terminally ill and we took him on a final trip to his birth place in Wales. We visited the Elan Valley and my father walked for a while and said it was the most beautiful place he had seen in his life. When you spend time with someone so ill you start to see through their eyes. The colours were so vivid and it was a wonderful time for us. Later a work colleague had to make a business trip and asked me for directions. I deliberately directed him though the Elan Valley. When he returned he thanked me and said my father had been right. For years he had not visited Wales because he had thought it was just an industrial area and hadn't believed me when I had told him that it was possibly the most beautiful part of the UK. He had immediately booked a two week trip with his equally sceptical girlfriend to introduce her to Wales.

[@Durgesuth]

It’s true about the industry of Wales as slate was mined there and sent all over the world for roofing materials…. The Elan valley supplies dinking water to Birmingham …Nuclear and hydro electric power stations in Snowdonia and huge steel mills in the South… Wales is quite amazing as an industrial power house but still retained its natural charm

[@Charlies247]

You comment is moving. Thanks for sharing.

[@theoneanton]

The industrial parts of Wales are dog rough, and some areas have deprivation so bad that historically they qualified for, and received, European Union financial aid. Thankfully these areas are very separate, and nothing unpleasant 'spills out' elsewhere. This is about 1% of what you would see, and can avoid quite easily. The other 99% is stunning. I think we downplay the beauty a bit, but we don't want to get too popular ;)

Love, love, love Cymru. I used to live on a tiny island off the Welsh coast called Bardsey, or Ynys Enlli, that was only 1 mile long by half a mile wide.

I'm originally from Llandudno although we moved away when I was four. We made regular trips back throughout my childhood as both sets of grandparents were there. My sister is now living there again so I'm still a regular visitor. On my mum's side of the family we're related to Richard Hughes who was one of the contractors that built the Marine Drive. My dad's parents lived on the Great Orme and my grandpa used to work on the trams. My dad was an apprentice electrician at the Pier Pavilion Theatre (sadly it burnt down in the 90s) and was later a projectionist at the Savoy Cinema in Mostyn Street (where KFC is now). My mum was Rose Queen of Llandudno in 1950. The same year there was a train crash in nearby Penmaenmawr and my Taid (grandfather), a local policeman, was one of the first on the scene. He later received a commendation from the King.

There are many ways to get to the top of the great orme either walking, by the Victorian funicular tramway or cable car gondola. There are many things to do at the top including a cafe and a museum. Activities half way down the orme to the northwest side facing conway there is a copper mine and zip wire, also a tribute to lewis carol the quthor of alice in wonderland who was born in Llandudno. Llandudno has two stunning beaches on both sides of town. Driving round the orme, if you take binoculars march tomay you will see pods of dolphins and porpoise swimming. Lovely video, I long to go back soon.

Welcome / Croeso, enjoy your time in Wales.

Those sheep probably belonged to a farmer. It's not uncommon in many parts of the UK for sheep to roam the countryside (which is why it's important to leave gates as you find them, i.e. if it's shut before you go through it, then shut it again behind you). They usually have coloured markings, a bit like they've been shot with a paintball gun, that indicate whose sheep they are. Sometimes they have numbered ear tags as well which identify individual sheep.

I've enjoye all your videos, particularly the UK trip, but this is the one where you are clearly having the most fun :-)

[@eamonquinn5188]

Well done for driving in a foreign country on the wrong side of the road and getting from York to Llandudno. You both looked very happy and relaxed exploring muddy caves, clambering over rocks and skipping down hillsides. Hope you got a chance to see even more of Wales; it's a beautiful country, and like Ireland there's an obvious reason it's so green x

[@jadeviper1804]

So glad you loved my Beautiful home country! Im very fortunate to live here and even now, I find new places to be in Awe of, in my own country. Cymru Am Byth 💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Wales is so lovely as are the people, unfortunately for you guys you didn’t go to the right coast of Scotland that has a huge amount of lochs, mountains and some of the most stunning scenery in the world. You really missed out. I hope you got to enjoy beautiful Wales.

get rid of the midgies and it would be even better.

[@gareththomas6714]

not everything is about scotland

[@woodenseagull1899]

Scotland is not the most welcoming place. It's not the safest place to go ether. Ireland and Wales is fantastic !

[@Arcadia61]

@@woodenseagull1899 I don't know about that! We visited the highlands twice + some of the Orkney Islands and felt perfectly safe and the people were lovely. The scenery is incredible, traffic almost non-existent except in the cities. Would love to go back soon.

[@Hagar934]

@@Arcadia61 Scotland is lovely unfortunately it's full of Scots, only joking some of them are really nice

I visited Llandudno last April. It was windy on the Great Orme that day too.

[@SnKKS]

Love Wales. Such a beautiful place. Thanks for the video, makes me want to plan my next trip there! 😍

There's always a lot of jellyfish off Llandudno pier. Also the Great Orme has miles of tunnels beneath it, some dating back 4000 years when copper mining was conducted. The goats are actually Afghan Kashmiri goats, and the regimental mascot of the Royal Welch Fusiliers (it's spelt 'Welch' as opposed to 'Welsh') - 'The Goat Major' is selected from them. Recently with covid the goats started to roam into Llandudno town (previously they'd just remain on the Orme). At 16;43 you mention the 'foundation' - it was probably part of the coastal Artillery school that was based on the Orme during the war. It could also be part of the 'Stop line' - a series of bunkers and choke points in lines across the UK to slow down any advancing invasion by the Germans in WW2. I'm from North Wales and while I did kind of appreciate the landscape, it wasn't until I moved away and brought my wife to visit that I really appreciated it. In Welsh we have a word 'Hiraeth' it kind of means 'longing', 'nostalgia' , sort of like homesickness. But it can also mean 'Belonging'.

North Wales/Snowdonia in my favourite place in the UK. I'm glad you chose to visit! So green and pretty, and has a magical feel when the weather is good.

[@georgebee3090]

This was enchanting thank you! Going to see my granny in mid wales in a couple weeks and you’ve got me even more excited!

[@BeckyPoleninja]

Those sheep will belong to a farm, just put to graze and wander. Wales is stunning, the Highlands of Scotland is stunning too

[@isking1715]

Wales is so beautiful. I love the Pembrokeshire coast and Sandersfoot has the most beautiful beach. Lots of gorgeous spots actually and lovely people on the whole.

[@Biowoman.]

Love driving down to Wales. I really recommend you guys checking out Harlech castle. It's beautiful, and if you're not used to seeing castles around, it's definitely a must visit.

[@meandthepotatoes4916]

I’m the only one in my family not born in Wales so I have a natural bias. But it is truly one of the most beautiful places on earth

[@cariadbach]

Guys, I'm so pleased you loved Wales! It's my country and she's absolutely perfect, you're quite right! Next time you have to travel down to the Pembrokeshire Coast. If you think that was beautiful, you ain't seen nothing yet! The Gower is definitely another place you should plan to stop at next time you visit! It has the status of Most Outstanding Natural Beauty. Please come again, we welcome you with open arms!! 😊💜

[@steventhomas9461]

Exactly the Gower is just beautiful ,my grandparents had a static caravan at LLanmadoc and nearly every weekend in the summer we went there ,such great memories ,i might not live in Wales now but every day i wake up happy knowing im Welsh

[@cariadbach]

@@steventhomas9461 Aww, that's lush! Wales has some of the most beautiful countryside & coast in the UK. I too am very proud to be Welsh!

[@kayfountain6261]

It's years since I was last in Llandudno but absolutely adored the place. Great base for walks, beach and general chilling but also places to go if it's wet.

[@zingystardust4082]

Another fantastic video. The scenery was absolutely stunning.

Was lovely to see your sheer joy at the wonderful views of Wales, I live in England but Wales is my favourite place and I spend as much time as I am able in that beautiful place, you have so many more joys to experience yet you're only just beginning, can't wait to see your next adventure through Wale's

[@stephenwigmore5006]

Really love your Videos, it’s so nice to see my country through fresh eyes, cannot wait to see your Shrewsbury experiences, my hometown , cannot believe you were here!, come back soon

[@gillcawthorn7572]

The reason for the long piers around Britain is that before the advent of the motor car all transport on land was by horse or horse-drawn carriage. It was often quicker to go round the coast by boat but the size of boat meant a harbour or something where the boat could moor in deeper water .So piers stretching out to sea were built ,the passengers would alight then walk along the pier to the land. Of course ,once there were cars the piers became obsolete for that purpose and became a local tourist attraction ,with games ,rides and sometimes a small theatre at the sea end .

[@iriscollins7583]

Thank you so much for that information on piers. Often wondered about their use.✌️

[@amyb1993]

I'm so glad you came to Wales and got to see a piece of my beautiful country

[@clarethwaite7716]

If you come again to Wales all the Welsh Coast is beautiful, South Wales has Sandier beaches but also beautiful scenery as has West Wales, Tenby is a must for a beautiful seaside town. The United Kingdom is one larger island and 100s od small ones so nowhere in UK are you further than 100 to 150 miles from the sea. Thank you I have loved watching your adventures. Dioch (the Welsh word for thank you)

[@adrianhorgan8944]

Cotton in the Elms is the furthest point at 70 miles apparently

[@dandare6623]

Beautiful Wales. Glad you enjoyed and thank you for sharing
