Majestic Mountains Inland, Wales is dominated by its mountainous terrain. Snowdonia National Park in the north is home to Mount Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales at 3,560 feet. The park's rugged landscape of craggy peaks, hidden valleys, and pristine lakes offers endless opportunities for hiking, climbing, and photography. In mid-Wales, the Brecon Beacons present a different kind of beauty. Rolling hills covered in heather give way to dramatic waterfalls cascading down rocky gorges. The area is famous for its dark skies, making it a perfect spot for stargazing on clear nights.

Swansea & Rhossili

Take the train from Bristol to Swansea. Swansea is such a magical place, with so many busy commercial beaches to visit, it's even more appealing to be here in a peaceful cove all to yourself. Take the bus from Swansea to Rhossili Bay. It was very windy, but the views were beautiful. In the evening we saw the sun set over Rhossili Bay. It has a quiet and peaceful feel to it, perfect for sitting and enjoying with friends or loved ones. After the sunset, Roseland Bay is a bit dark, with a film filter, which is perfect for taking photos.

I was exploring the history there. #mytripvlog
