"For a great vegan breakfast in the centre of Cardiff, check out Cosy Club. We wanted a yummy vegan breakfast to snack on before visiting Cardiff castle. Cosy club is part of the Loungers chain which was founded in 2002 by three friends."
"Catch an opera performance at the bayside Millennium Centre, shop through the beautiful Edwardian arcades, taste craft brews at The Potted Pig, cheer on the rugby team at Principality Stadium, or take in works by Renoir, Monet, and Pissarro for free at the National Museum, which is home to the largest collection of Impressionist paintings outside of Paris. Cardiff Castle, meanwhile, is a prime example of the city’s patchwork of influences and cultures. Dating back to 55AD, it was originally a Roman fort that later became a Norman stronghold (the 11th-century Norman keep still stands and has one of the best views of Cardiff at its top). The rest of the castle, built in the 14th and 15th centuries, was completely redesigned in 1866, when a British aristocrat moved in to make it his private home."
"The Millennium Stadium is the national stadium of Wales, located in Cardiff. It is the home of the Wales national rugby union team and also frequently stages games of the Wales national football team, but is also host to many other large scale events, such as the Super Special Stage of Wales Rally Great Britain, Speedway Grand Prix of Great Britain, boxing and many music concerts, including Tina Turner, Madonna, The Rolling Stones, U2, Stereophonics, and the Tsunami Relief concert. It was built to host the 1999 Rugby World Cup."

"To quote Dylan Thomas, this, the oldest museum in Wales (purpose built in 1841), is a ‘museum which belongs in a museum’.

"The brand-new restaurant had to delay its opening due to local lockdown, but I got there eventually. Hubbox Cardiff Bay is a little bit of Cornwall, matched with decent burgers, mac and cheese, and dirty fries alongside west country beers and ciders and an impressive cocktail menu. They even have different flavoured lemonades and coolers, which can be pimped with alcohol."
"For outdoor dining in Mermaid Quay, Hub Box is a great option. The burger and beer spot is decked out in beach shack-style interiors, with quirky neon lights and rattan furnishings. On warmer days head out to the festoon-lit front terrace to enjoy a triple-stacked bun in the sunshine."
"Located on the waterfront at Mermaid Quay, where Starbucks and Ed's Easy Diner were once based, Hub Box brings a menu with something for everyone – meat-eater, vegan, veggie or gluten free – with their burgers being their calling card of course. They also serve breakfast too."

"Spanning 20 hectares, these magnificent gardens are particularly impressive in spring, when the azaleas and rhododendrons are at their most spectacular. Plus there are delicate pieris and enkianthus, bluebell woods, wildflower meadows, a bog garden and even a dogs' graveyard to explore. The entrance is by the Woodman Pub at the Swansea end of the Mumbles Rd strip."
"My most liked photo on Instagram is in a flower garden, and honestly, I think there is no way you can go wrong with a garden picture anyway. And that is why Dyffryn Gardens are one of the most Instagrammable places to visit in Cardiff. The landscape architect Thomas Mawson designed the gardens, and they were the idea of the industrialist John Cory and his son Reginald Cory at the beginning of the 20th century."
"A peaceful oasis on the outskirts of Cardiff, Dyffryn Gardens covers more than 55 acres. Designed by eminent landscape architect Thomas Mawson in 1906, The Edwardian gardens are home to year-round seasonal highlights the gardens feature the best woody collection in the National Trust. Discover intimate garden rooms including the Pompeiian garden, Paved Court, Reflecting Pool and Mediterranean garden."
