North Wales: Places to Explore
Ruthin
Once a stronghold of the rebel Welsh prince Owain Glyndwr (c. 1354-1416), Ruthin is a delightful market town with elegant shops, good inns, and a fascinating architectural mix of medieval, Tudor, and Georgian buildings. The town also has a crafts complex with displays of the artisans' creations.
