It is a well-known fact that Cardiff is a capital of Wales. It lies near the mouth of the river Taff, which flows into the English Channel. Romans first occupied this place about 75 BC, they built a fort there. In the 3rd—4th centuries they built a massive wall around it, nowadays people can still observe its traces at various parts of the modern city. When Roman forces left Britain, all the people followed their example. Only 700 years later with the coming of Normans, they came back to live there again.
For some people today Cardiff seems too Victorian, too formal, too dignified. But in fact it is not really so, Cardiff is a relaxed city with a thriving cultural life. The New Theatre of Cardiff performs all kinds of music and entertainment.
