A Journey through Tudor Cardiff: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

A Journey through Tudor Cardiff: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

This self guided audio tour helps you escape the modern city of Cardiff and picture what it was like to walk through the streets of the tiny but lively Tudor Town of Cardiff in the 1500s. Most (but not all) of the Tudor buildings are long gone, but thanks to historical records and maps we can piece together, as you meander through the city centre, what you would have seen, what dramatic events you might have witnessed, and who you might have been lucky enough (or unlucky enough!) to meet. Your journey back in time is helped with period music and sound effects to complete a magical journey of the imagination!

The Ghosts of Llandaff: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

The Ghosts of Llandaff: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

Follow the forgotten but, in places, ancient pathways which lie behind Llandaff Cathedral on this self-guided audio tour. Isolated, atmospheric, and away from modern urban Cardiff, they are filled with mystery, atmosphere, legend and ghost stories. In places, these paths were ancient Celtic trade routes or medieval roadways. They are filled with strange and sometimes spine chilling tales of ghosts and phantoms, still being witnessed and reported in modern times. In places, the atmosphere can become strange, overwhelming, even sinister, especially in the dark seclusion of the night! This tour follows a circular route taking you along a mysterious and atmospheric wooded lane, the scene of many ghostly experiences, before following the riverbank where more ghostly encounters and legends are told. The route turns back towards the Cathedral for more tales, and culminates in the old abandoned and overgrown woodland graveyard, with its intense atmosphere and ghostly tales.
