This wall extends from the castle and has stone carvings of various animals which would have been very exotic when it was created. Much fun 🙂

Great photo opportunity, but the area can be busy depending on the weather and it’s likely any progress on a bike would be very slow. Early mornings and evenings are good.

St Fagans is an affluent village situated to the west of Cardiff in South Wales. The village is home to St Fagans National Museum of History, Wales' most popular heritage attraction that beautifully showcases the history of Welsh life. Whilst in St Fagans, a visit to the museum is a must. There are endless fascinating places to discover inside the grounds, including an old sweet shop, a chapel, a Workmen's Institute, a set of traditional cottages laid out in their original style, and a late 16th-century manor house and gardens. It is free to enter the grounds, and you can check out the opening times here https://museum.wales/stfagans/visit/

A stunning classic welsh castle in the heart of the town. Theres a road that loops all around the castle for a good 360 view. Can be quite busy at times being in the town centre

Totally cool wall - unfortunately a bit too close to the street

The best view of the the Animal Wall is at the southern boundary of the park from Castle Street. The carving of the animals began in the late 1880s. Architect William Frame brought the wall to life, based on sketches byarchitect William Burges who was employed by the 3rd Marquess of Bute. The original wall was built in the 1890s directly outside the castle. Original animals included: a pair of lions holding shields, a lioness, a lynx, a bear, a sea lion, a wolf, a pair of apes and a hyena. You can tell these apart from their later cousins because they have glass eyes. The wall was moved and relocated west of the Castle in 1923 due to the widening of Duke Street, and six extra animals were added. The six additional animals were the vulture, beaver, leopard, a pair of raccoons, a pelican and an anteater. https://bute-park.com/attraction/the-animal-wall

Castell Coch is a 19th-century castle overlooking the village of Tongwynlais. Whilst there has been a castle on the site since the Norman period, architect William Burges transformed the crumbling medieval ruins into a Gothic masterpiece during the Victorian era, under the request of the third Marquess of Bute. Entry to the castle costs £7.70 for adults, £4.60 for children, £6.10 for seniors, and £21.60 for families. For more information, visit: cadw.gov.wales/visit/places-to-visit/castell-coch.

Stunning Castle, well worth a day out..
