Nice station building featuring the fanous sign with the 58 character long name of the place, which is commonly used in one of its shorter forms. At the tourist trap on the other side of the parling lot is a translation into English, while the sign on the platform provides pronounciation guidance. Probably besides the Marquess of Anglesey's Column the only really highlight in this place.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch The name was coined by a Welshman after the railway line was established in the 19th century to entice tourists to disembark. It still attracts tourists today. Translated into English, the name roughly means: St. Mary at the White Hazel Pool next to the rapids and St. Tysilio Church near the red cave.

The old suspension bridge is definitely the more scenic way to enter Anglesey than the main bridge that carries the A55.

Palace Street in Caernarfon was awarded the "Welsh Rising Star" award at the Great British High Street Awards 2019! The beautiful street is becoming increasingly popular with independent shops and has attracted additional shoppers in recent years. As a visitor, it is worth a detour to visit one of the many cafes or restaurants, or to browse the local shops.
