Llanfairpwllgwyngyll Railway Station

Highlight • Settlement

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.

Bodowyr Burial Chamber

Highlight • Natural Monument

Neolithic standing stones still shrouded in mystery

Standing on a hillock backed by panoramic views of Snowdonia, Bodowyr is a striking landmark. The massive, mushroom-shaped capstone was originally supported by four tall standing stones, one of which fell at some point over the last few millennia. A fifth, shorter stone is believed to mark what was once the tomb’s entrance.

Originally covered in earth and built in Neolithic (New Stone Age) times it is most likely a passage grave used for communal burial. However, the site has never been excavated so exactly who or what is buried here remains a mystery.
