Streets squares and districts to visit Wales

Pembrokeshire Coastal National Park is located along the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales. Declared a national park in 1952, it is the only one in the UK whose protection was motivated primarily by the beauty of its coastline. With a surface area of 629 km², the park offers magnificent seascapes, spectacular cliffs and charming beaches. You can enjoy a wide range of activities, including hiking, biking, kayaking and wildlife observation. It is close to the town of Milford Haven, which offers accommodation and catering facilities for visitors.

A medieval village has been reconstituted on an ancient site. Houses and gardens have been built entirely in the spirit of the period. Craftsmen, gardeners and farmers in period costume go about their work as if nothing had happened... Here we are, telescoped back into the Middle Ages, in a village built within a sumptuous park. What's more, it's punctuated by large lakes and woods, making it an ideal place for walks and picnics.

A visit to the mosaics is a fun way to discover the city's history.

Starting from the docks on Bristol Packet Wharf, you can discover a circular mosaic on the ground symbolizing the trading connections between Newport and Blaenavon, the main coal-mining center in the south of the country.

Then stroll down Commercial Street towards High Street, where you'll pass the covered market hall. On the traffic circle behind it, you'll discover a colorful mosaic of a flower market. Its naïve character, proliferation of flowers and vivid colors are reminiscent of the frescoes by Mexican artist Diego Rivera. Opposite, the Old Green Mural depicts the transportation routes (canals, railroads, etc.) without which the city's commercial development would have been impossible.

A little further out, in the Civic Centre on Fields Road, you'll also find a fresco, this time painted. It illustrates the history of Newport, from its foundations to 1964. Created by Hans Feibusch in the 1960s, its triptych structure and the high quality of its composition and colors make it one of his most accomplished works.

New mosaics have recently been added to St Paul's Walk, paying tribute to women, particularly during the First World War. These include 8 women who left their mark on the history of the region during the war and who recently passed away.
