Salam semua...saya dah try cari thread Wales tapi takde, so saja la saya create untuk semua orang boleh share. Bulan lepas saya baru balik dari UK dan Wales merupakan salah satu country yang saya melawat dan saya ingin share some of my photos and experiences there. Pada pendapat saya, Wales has a lot to share and worth to visit. Kalau dah ada thread ni tolong merge ya.
Wales, also known as Cymru, is part of the United Kingdom and well-known for its rich history and culture. Wales is in north-west Europe and is part of Great Britain, an island country and the United Kingdom (UK) .
The name Wales comes from the Cymraeg word Gwalia, meaning in English "Homeland". It later became Latinized as Walia, then by the Normans to something like Wal~es....then Wales.
Wales (Cymru in Welsh) is a mountainous country on the western side of Great Britain. Wales is bordered by England to the east, the Bristol Channel to the south, St George's Channel in the west, and the Irish Sea to the north.Technically, Wales is a principality. This means that it is ruled by a prince. Traditionally the Prince of Wales is the eldest son of the English monarch.Wales is one of the four parts of the United Kingdom (along with England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland).

You pergi area mana kat Wales tu?
I pun baru pergi Wales last weekend. Tapi bahagian North je sebab main aim nak tengok Caernafon Castle dan pergi Portmeirion. Carnaefon tu mmg comel je town dalam medieval wall dia tu aka Gwynedd. Yang Portmeirion tu I rasa so-so je. First impression macam Bukit Tinggi kat Malaysia (tak ingat nama). Tapi woodland dia the main attraction rasanya sebab pokok2 dia mcm pelik2 sikit. |

Wow menarik.. Munah tahun 2013 ada pergi Aberystwyth sebab melawat cousin study sana. Wales memang cantik sangat especially kawasan peninggalan zaman norman conquest. Cousin ada lah bawa pergi jenjalan area selain Aber tapi Munah lupa pula sebab susah betul nak pronounce the word. Huhu. |
