The town's famous pier retains its Victorian charm, and a walk to the end of it is an essential part of any Llandudno visit.
 Indeed, the whole town harks back to an era before package tours to Ibiza and budget airlines revolutionised the holiday experience. Llandudno speaks of gentler times, its small shops and ice cream parlours a world away from the glossy but bland shopping malls to be found elsewhere. The visitor to Llandudno is never short of options. Marine Drive, which winds around the edge of the Great Orme is a very scenic car trip - with a small toll to pay. From here, a journey can be made to the top of the Orme. At the summit are a range of attractions: the bronze age copper mines, a country park, dry ski slope and a Victorian tramway. The resorts along this section of the North Wales coast are not the place to go if you are seeking Welsh culture or scenic splendour. But, for those wanting a traditional British seaside break - with attractions, lively nightlife and family fun - they are perfect. And, in Llandudno, North Wales has one of the finest coastal towns in the UK. |
