It is a lovely place.<br /><br />@ Ivanhoe: It is lovely. You have to make a turn here one day!<br /><br />@ London Calling: The weather is always rubbish when I'm trying to get decent photos! These were meant to be our summer holidays!<br /><br />@ Ancient Digger: The castle walls are a fixed feature and part of the old town. They tend to make use of as much space as they can and if there is a rare, unused corner, then what better use than a playground?? <br /><br />@ Danielle: Yes, the city is really picturesque and like a movie set!<br /><br />@ John: You'll have to visit there next time!<br /><br />@ Spiderdama: Caernarfon Castle is quite impressive! I must post my pics of it soon!<br /><br />@ Tina: I prefer visiting small towns to living in them!!<br /><br />@ Within Ireland: I would absolutely recommend both Scotland and Wales, as well as Isle of Wight!!<br /><br />@ Avcr8teur: There was a massive car park on the other side of the castle and then everything else was within walking distance.<br /><br />@ Ryan: Me too! Thank you.<br /><br />@ Life Ramblings: Thank you! It is such a beautiful town.<br /><br />@ Karen: it must be amazing living in Wales, with such natural beauty and abundant history!<br /><br />@ William: certainly not!<br /><br />@ RuneE: Definitely! Wales can vary greatly depending on whether you visit the north or south.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931248631361366673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757405063506888257.post-35464723547139491552011-12-07T13:39:10.178+00:002011-12-07T13:39:10.178+00:00I have barely been to Wales (Cardiff), but I see t...I have barely been to Wales (Cardiff), but I see that I have to visit Caernarfon, famous for a lot of things.<br /><br />PS Thank you for the nice comments!Rune Eidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008247272056395901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757405063506888257.post-1999619873746280272011-12-06T21:42:50.114+00:002011-12-06T21:42:50.114+00:00Caernarfon definitely looks like the type of town ...Caernarfon definitely looks like the type of town I would enjoy visiting - history, castles and old pubs does it get any better than that.William K Wallacehttp://londoniscool.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757405063506888257.post-36237881745121367932011-12-04T14:03:33.936+00:002011-12-04T14:03:33.936+00:00I love Caernarfon, it's such a lovely place to...I love Caernarfon, it's such a lovely place to visit, though I do think that a lot of damage is been caused to the wonderful walled town by all the traffic that goes through it everyday.Karen @ Blazing Mindshttp://blazingminds.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757405063506888257.post-53330874954513018712011-12-04T05:30:12.851+00:002011-12-04T05:30:12.851+00:00A great series of photos, Emm.
