Tips from the Community
Nice station building featuring the fanous sign with the 58 character long name of the place, which is commonly used in one of its shorter forms. At the tourist trap on the other side of the parling lot is a translation into English, while the sign on the platform provides pronounciation guidance. Probably besides the Marquess of Anglesey's Column the only really highlight in this place.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch The name was coined by a Welshman after the railway line was established in the 19th century to entice tourists to disembark. It still attracts tourists today. Translated into English, the name roughly means: St. Mary at the White Hazel Pool next to the rapids and St. Tysilio Church near the red cave.

A short walk around the church cemetery affords wonderful views of the Menai Strait, both bridges and Ynys Gorad Goch island, whose residents once made a living from the fish caught at the traps built there. Menai bridge has a selection of interesting shops, including antiques, books and ironmongers.
