Discover Stunning Wales

Wales has maintained its distinctive character as one of the Celtic nations of Europe, with a long history of defying and thwarting invasion and control by more powerful neighbours.

It shares a border with England in the east, while the long and diverse coastline runs from the Irish Sea to the Bristol Channel. Welsh and English are both official languages and the country is also famous as a land of music and singing.

With breath-taking scenery, distinctive culture, and a fascinating history, Wales is a fantastic place for a holiday in the UK. From the ancient mountains of Snowdonia, to the coastal cliffs of Pembrokeshire, to the museums of Cardiff, this small but exciting country really offers something for everyone to enjoy.

Wales offers a wealth of attractions and exciting destinations for holidaymakers. It is home to castles, mining towns, ancient sites, industrial heritage and more. Wales has built its cultural identity over the centuries, and maintained its own way of doing things.

Wales is a nation that loves sport.

Each year, Wales hosts a range of different sports and events, from cricket and football to golf and rugby. There's definitely little argument that rugby international weekends in Cardiff are something very special to savour.
