Cardiff has an exciting history that dates back over 2,000 years, when the Romans first built a fort here that would become the site of the iconic Cardiff Castle. Today, visitors can explore the castle's opulent interiors, including the lavish apartments, wartime shelters and Norman Keep, as well as stroll through the beautiful gardens and grounds. Other historic highlights include the fairytale fortress of Castell Coch (Red Castle) and the architectural masterpiece of Llandaff Cathedral.
