Wrexham
In the last few years Wrexham has been transformed into a shopper's paradise whilst still retaining the charm of the older streets, arcades and markets – the Monday market is the largest in North Wales.
Places to visit
There's plenty to see and do in and around Wrexham.
If you're having a family day out, take a trip to Minera Lead Mines and Country Park or visit Ty Mawr Country Park, with its collection of animals and pleasant walks.
If you're after a more historical day, take a look at Caergwrle Castle which has spectacular views over the area, visit Elihu Yale's Tomb (Yale University in the USA is named after this Wrexham man!) in St Giles Church in the town centre, take a trip to Bersham Heritage Centre in the beautiful Clywedog Valley, or stop off at one of the two National Trust properties of Erddig Hall and Chirk Castle.
Or, if you fancy a flutter, why not have a day out at the races at Bangor-on-Dee Racecourse, near Wrexham?
