| Llangollen is an ancient market town situated on the banks of the magnificent River Dee. Lying under the gaze of Dinas Bran Castle, it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in North Wales. Its river crossing, one of the seven wonders of Wales, has been here since the times of St Collen after whom the town is named. Visit St Collens Church and marvel at its oak panelled roof and enjoy the serenity of its interior. Home
to the International Musical Eisteddfod, the towns population of just
over 3,000 rises to overflowing during this famous week in July. The
atmosphere created during the festival by the many thousands of overseas
competitors makes the town a magnet for all. |
