Another trip through cozy Conwy. Still as beautiful as the first time😊

Always enjoyed travelling in Wales. Went the first time that I holidayed in Britain at the behest of my old expat Welsh mate but returned on pretty well all subsequent trips by personal choice. Countryside, castles and old toy railways bring back great memories.

What a splendid video! This town is definitely going on my Wales trip. Thank you for helping me plan my dream vacations to the UK. I love y'all & take care🙂❤

Sin duda cada vez que los veo viajo con ustedes, disfruto de esos pequeños detalles que nos muestran y cuentan de la historia de estos lugares, de cada paraje, de cada pub, restaurantes, tabernas y dulcerias. Aprecio tanto ver estos videos despues de un dia estresante o cuando me siento agobiada por mi entorno, los veo a ustedes y me transporto a lugares mejores llenos de encanto y paz. Muchas gracias por traer a KZread tan lindas experiencias. Saludos, y que la buena suerte siempre los acompañe en cada viaje que realicen. 🤗😊

Always fabulous!!

Another wonderful job showing us the fun and beauty of Wales. You seemed to do well pronouncing the Welsh place names, I didn't even dare to even try saying those names when I visited way back in 1973. I'm looking forward to the rest of your series, thank you.

Conwy definitely one of the best preserved wall-town in Wales and the UK as a whole. Went through the entire wall, a great walk though, another castle town- Caernarfon is nearby a gateway to Snowdonia though, also the Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch, the longest place name in the country not far from it

Ah good to know I just assumed that’s when they did it. I guess it must have just been accepted as the smallest house in 1920 and then they added it to the book in 1955. Good catch!

Conwy is indeed a very beautiful place. We have spent many a happy holiday there. The cable car trip featured though is a bit of a rip off at £13 and a £4 toll on the road I think we would pass on. Wales is sadly going to shoot it's self in the foot if it gets to commercial.

The modern Conway Bridge was actually built in 1958 not 1948 and the embankment by the River Conway is credited to Thomas Telford. I do wish you would put the measurements in feet first. The metric ruins a good narration. Nearby on the river they did the Mulberry Harbour in preparation of the D Day landings during WWII. It was on the River Conway down river opposite Deganwy. There's nothing to see there but there is an information board. It was in the first deries of Coast with Nick Crane.

I’ve always hated the railway bridge at Conway. It totally spoils the view of the castle. There could have been some great train photographs taken over the past hundred years if it wasn’t encased in.
