Carreg Cennan castle



I visited many castles near the Brecons in Wales, but my favourite was Carreg Cennan. This one is perched on a limestone outcrop and is appealing because it looks almost like it is carved out of the rock. In fact I think parts of it are. The mysterious feature is a tunnel which leads through the rock and down into a cave, which can be dangerous unless one has a torch. It is a very pleasant and beautiful site to visit as it feels like you are very high up with the wind rushing through the walls and no other sound.
