There are beautifully laid out gardens and parks, and Cardiff Bay is home to a large new lake with water sports, restaurants and bars - and the setting for innovative TV programmes such as Dr Who. And in the evening, there's professional opera, theatre and ballet, and lots, lots more.

1. Principality Stadium to Cardiff Castle - 1.5 miles / 2.4 kms
From the towering national stadium of Wales make your way round the heart of the old city centre with buildings bursting with charm. Walk slowly along a couple of Cardiff’s unique arcades – home to unusual shops, eateries, and places to drink – or pop into Cardiff’s fabulous covered market. There’s also the medieval church of St John’s, stately buildings and flowered gardens, and Cardiff Castle – a must-see for any visitor!

2. Bute Park to Alexandra Gardens - 1 mile / 1.6 kms
From one corner of the enchanting Bute Park, with contrasting views of Cardiff Castle, this walk soon takes you into a different world - of dramatic, historic buildings – the County Court, City Hall, the National Museum of Wales, Cardiff University. But there’s also a quieter side – a small park, once home to an Eisteddfod, and Alexandra Gardens with its beautiful flowers, trees and the stunning Welsh National War Memorial.
