Chester is a walled city in Cheshire, England, on the River Dee, close to the border with Wales. Conwy Castle and National Slate Museum will appeal to museum buffs. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Portmeirion Village and Chester Cathedral. Venture out of the city with trips to St Gwyddelan's Church (in Dolwyddelan), Caernarfon (Oriel Pendeitsh, Caernarfon Castle, &more) and Criccieth (Castle Gallery, Criccieth Beach, &more). The adventure continues: get engrossed in the history at Blists Hill Victorian Town, explore the striking landscape at Great Orme, examine the collection at Coalport China Museum, and admire the natural beauty at Bodnant Garden.
