history
The capital of Wales is
Cardiff. Cardiff is
Europe's youngest
Capital City,
achieving its status
in 1955, and
although it has
grown into one of the
most vibrant cities. It
has not lost its small
town quality
The name Cardiff is
an Anglicisation of
Welsh name
"Caerdydd". Caer"
means "fort" or
"castle." "Dydd" or
"Diff" was a
corruption of "
Taff", the river on
which Cardiff
castle stands, in
which case
"Cardiff" would
mean "the fort on
the river Taff" (in

Cardiff is a great place to
be a student. Besides
our own college, a
Further Education
College, there are two
large universities and
the Welsh College of
Music and Drama.

very cosmopolitan city,
it does not have an
over-concentration of
foreign students and
