im english and i go to Snowdonia a few times a year, its definetly one of the most beautiful locations in the united kingdom

Wales is underrated. I don't understand why it's not talked about as much.

@@tameriajones593 Probably because the tourist boards in both England & Scotland really push their identity and country. Also, the Scottish and English governments are working with a much larger budget, resulting in a more international recognition of their countries. Just ask any foreign tourist, which major cities they visited on their travels. London and Edinburgh come top of the list, Cardiff comes a distant destination. Both England & Scotland are recognised around the world as having their own unique identity, but even though Wales is a separate nation of the United Kingdom, the majority of foreign visitors mistakenly assume Wales is part of England. This is why Wales is a not as popular as England or Scotland

Welsh tourist board dont push to advertise Wales its a gem thats why

I loved hiking in Snowdonia. The hospitality in Wales is wonderful. I forgot to mention how beautiful are men choirs. It was incredible.

If you listen to the way the Elvish people speak in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, you will hear the influence of Welsh. J.R.R. Tolkien described the Welsh Language as the loveliest of all the Languages.

​@@KG-fw5wk Man how crazy is that😅, hopefully one day I'll visit Wales. I remember learning a little hawaiian and welsh and I found them to be similar because of how few people speak them. It would be sad to see such beautiful languages go extinct so I'm learning them to keep it alive ❤

I’m a Hawaiian too, and I just went to Wales last week! Like Hawaii, one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.

@@jonahwillis2781 That's so cool!

Me too

and there are special and beautiful areas all over Wales!!

I hope the Welsh have something that I am looking for and when I tried to find something in the United States I could not find anything. Wales is the best.

Hi! I truly wanna know about Welse. I was searching on internet. Wanna know that or Rishi Sunak also your PM? Or Walse is a seperate country ? How you people see London? As a city of another country ??? I know about the England, great Britain n UK thing but still its lil confusing... also, I love your language. If I'll come to UK, I'm sure gonna visit Wales. But For now, much love from India. 🇮🇳

Many spend their honeymoon in the Caribbean, Bora Bora, Seychelles, etc. my husband and I chose the wonderful North Wales🌞

1863? The Wild West was still.....Wild

Thats a problem in parts of the u.s. as well. Here in the southeast Atlanta siphons off huge amounts of water from various rivers and reservoirs. In drought summers lots of small communities have to make drastic conservation efforts to keep the ever expanding atlanta metro monsters taps flowing. It's also severely affected the oyster and other aquaculture industries in the Florida panhandle estuaries bc they depend on a proper mix of fresh water from the rivers mixing with salt water to sustain life. Atlanta uses so much river water from the Chattahoochee and other rivers that it's all but wiped out oyster farming and fishing in these estuaries.

Exactly right friend. Wales has only to cut off the water to the English to hear them squeak

Do it! Flights are not too expensive and accommodation is very cheap in Wales

Oliver Lewin I'm with you on that one. As a child in the 60s and 70s I had many a happy time in North Wales. Think that's why I still love it.

@peace leader I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but just to be safe... no. Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England all form the UK, none of them are provinces (well, except perhaps NI... that's complicated, and I'm not going in to it). There is no such thing as 'England' in terms of political power (i.e. there's no English parliament, only a British parliament containing representatives from the whole UK), so by definition the other three can't be provinces, since a province is a place managed or owned to some degree by an external political power. There is no English political body which is capable of claiming or exerting ownership. However, it is true that England has a much higher population than the other three constituent countries of the UK, so it has more representatives in parliament. This is what people mean when they say things like "England controls the UK" - its not a case of England exerting unfair or undue political power over the other parts of the UK (since, again, there is no political English body capable of exerting that power), its simply that its higher population elects so many MPs that England, taken as a whole, has the most influence over British law. If Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland had a higher population, there'd be more MPs in parliament from those places. In any case, that's why many non-English people feel particularly oppressed or ignored by Westminster (perhaps they even feel like an English province), because their separate national interest doesn't have equal representation in parliament. Obviously, whether you accept that depends on your point of view. Personally, I don''t feel that being English gives me any particular advantage, since I'm more concerned with how many MPs agree with my views, not where they're from. And at the moment, my views are particularly underrepresented in parliament. But that's just my perspective, I'm not saying that separatists and nationalists don't also have a valid point of view.

@peace leader Yeah I think it should. I'm very much in favour of federalism. We should replace FPPT with PR, keep the commons as based on constituency population, but also have a second chamber where each home nation has equal representation.

@peace leader try again

@@monkeymox2544Westminster is very much English Parliament. It is entirely pointless for us to even be represented in it. Independence is the only way forward for us, because England and its Parliament does not care about us and should have zero say in our affairs.

Welsh will always be in.

He left behind some cool castles!

Oh, you should go! My daughter and I visited Wales a few years ago and it was marvelous. She kept saying, "I can't get my head around how old everything is!" We visited a school that was founded by Henry VIII. It had been a monastery and when he closed them down, he had this particular one changed to a school for the area. We want to go back, we didn't see nearly enough!

Yes, Welsh settlers arrived in Patagonia in the 19th century and descendants speak Welsh, with people from Wales and Patagonia visiting each other.

Wales!

The chapel in Caernarfon has a plaque on it's wall to memorialise the first Welsh settlers in Patagonia who were members of the chapel.

Hello... can you send pictures of secenry of your country.

That's interesting, as I went to college in West Virginia at West Virginia Wesleyan College in Buckhannon and I was told the actual Appalachian Mountains were just east of the border of West Virginia and the actual mountain chain in eastern West Virginia are actually the Blue Ridge Mountains?

Texas Hi-Railer The Blue Ridge Mountains are just a region of the Appalachian Mountain Chain. They had it opposite though. Most of the Blue Ridge Mountains are in "western" Virginia with only a very small amount in West Virginia.

Travis Williams there is a town in England about ten miles from Wales called Shrewsbury.

You have to keep in mind West Virginia was part of Virginia untill the American Civil War when it split off. The blue ridge mountain (which is just a section of the Appalachian) is the western side of Virginia, farther west its elevated into the alleghany applachain plateau (mountain country) of west virginia. It is in these two mountain and valley lands where the Scots, Irish, and Welsh settled.

Dan L. My family settled in what is the "New River Valley" where I currently reside as well. I don't know this for sure but I suspect they were coal miners in wales and thus became coal miners in the new country.

Glad To Hear That! I Am From India Too, Could You Please Tell Which Region Are You Talking About?

Celtic no , Vales is caucasian people

I'm actually surprised at how much Cornish i can understand. I speak welsh so theyre very similar sure, but its really cool none the less.

Wales is certainly Celtic- land of the ancient Brythonic people, linked to the Cornish and Bretons in Brittany. Historically with darker hair and complexions than the Anglo-Saxons/ English from Germany who invaded Welsh-speaking Britain and called the land they took England

@The505Guys Unfortunately, you guys have become just as anglo as the rest of them. Wiped out by the rich English holiday homes and migrants

@The505Guys That's the exact same for Scotland too, tbh. Cornwall is literally more Celtic than Scotland is.

jsdprods very good views
