City Walk:
Historic Cardiff
START CIVIC CENTRE
END THE HAYES
LENGTH 1.5 MILES; ONE HOUR
One of the most elegant administrative quarters in Britain, Cardiff's Civic Centre encompasses formal parks and a
grand array of early 20th-century buildings, all dressed in gleaming white Portland stone. Start outside the neo-
classical
Cardiff Crown Court
, continue past the baroque-style
City Hall
and turn right and into
Gorsedd Gardens
. Here you'll find a sweet little statue simply titled
Girl
and a gorsedd stone circle, raised for
the National Eisteddfod in 1899.
