Caerleon was home to the Romans, you can see evidence of their occupation from as far back as 74-300AD. The Roman baths and the amphitheater are well worth a visit. The beautiful castle wall is unique.

61 Cross StRecommended by a previous resident and I must admit, it’s a jewel that I had quite forgotten. Home to Lords, Kings and an inspiration to poets, t’s definitely worth a visit. It’s near Usk too which is a riverside town perfect for lunch!

My favourite Indian restaurant. It had a challenging time over COVID but has since recovered and hired a great chef. Been going here for over 20 years. Apparently they’ve stopped serving alcohol but you can BYO.

If you think you've been to Swansea and its been a few year, go again. It's changed so much over recent years. With lots of regeneration happening, its the place to be if you're a student, a family, a mature person. It used to be fab when I was a teen but I just love the beaches and the town.

여행 팁
교통편
Buses are the fastest way to get around
You're very near the train station and the town centre. Its so easy to get a bus amost anywhere from the bus station about 15 min walk. If you need to get somewhere fast, book a taxi. Dragon Taxi or Chow taxi are the longest serving.
Train to Cardiff and Bristol is also super easy...but you know that don't you :-)
