What Is Cardiff, UK Known For?
Known as one of the top urban destinations in the UK, Cardiff is also the commercial and governmental center of Wales. The city was heavily bombed in WW2 and has staged a vigorous comeback since the city was declared the capital in 1955. While you’d be hard-pressed to find a local who is not mad about rugby, the city also offers a jubilant mix of nightlife, history, culture and scenic sights. Plus, bookworms and TV fanatics may get a kick out of the fact that Cardiff is the birthplace of Roald Dahl and the filming location of Doctor Who.
