Bangor

Wales's oldest city sits on the Menai Strait in Gwynedd, with mountain terrain rising behind it and the Isle of Anglesey across the water, connected by the Britannia and Menai Suspension bridges. Bangor Cathedral and the Victorian Garth Pier are the central landmarks, and Bangor University gives the city a lively café and restaurant scene. The wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
