The castle, the national stadium, a Victorian market and the arcades, all within a short walk
1 / 4Bienvenue dans le quartier
Cardiff's centre is compact, flat and largely pedestrianised, and Visit Cardiff says many of the main sights are no more than about a 15-minute walk apart. Cardiff Castle, with Roman walls, a Norman keep and Victorian interiors, faces the shopping streets, and the Principality Stadium stands on the river a few minutes south.
Between them run Victorian and Edwardian arcades, the indoor Cardiff Market and Womanby Street, one of the oldest streets in the city. Bute Park, once the castle grounds, opens behind the castle walls, and Cardiff Central and Queen Street stations are both a short walk from the castle.

Bons plans d'initiés
Visit Cardiff says the centre is flat and largely pedestrianised, and that many sights are within about 15 minutes' walk of each other.
The Principality Stadium is in the city centre, so streets, trains and hotels get busy on big match and concert days; check the stadium's events page before you book.
Visit Cardiff counts seven arcades in the centre, with over 100 shops, cafés, bars and restaurants under glass roofs.
Cardiff Castle's site has tickets and visitor information; the Wartime Shelters and the Firing Line museum are within the castle grounds.
