 | | This is Cardiff’s traditional commercial and social heart but, increasingly, Cardiff Bay, 2km (1 mile) or so to the south, is gaining ground in the entertainment and leisure stakes, as well as becoming an important administrative centre. |
 | | Indeed, Cardiff Bay has altered beyond recognition, from its past as the world's largest coal exporting port to a modern sport and leisure complex; it is also Europe's largest waterfront development and it has a wealth of leisure activities available both on and off the water. |
 | | Cardiff’s climate is quite temperate, without extreme variation between seasons and rain, sometimes quite a lot of it, all year round. |
