Llandaff: A Cathedral With Whispers of Roald Dahl and Dr Who

#cardifftrip #llandaff #cardiff #doctorwho #roalddahl #wales 🌟 This 12th-century cathedral crowns Llandaff—a ‘city within a city’ in the north of Cardiff—with stained-glass rainbows and the awe-inspiring Christ in Majesty statue. 🌟 Fun fact: Roald Dahl scowled through sermons here as a schoolboy, and Doctor Who fans might spot familiar corners (it’s filmed nearby!). Breathe in the cloistered calm, then wander lanes where time moves slower. 📍 Address: Cathedral Close, Llandaff, Cardiff CF5 2LA 🕒 Open: Daily 9:00 AM–5:30 PM (free entry; donations welcome). ☕️ Top tip: Combine with a coffee at nearby Daisy’s Café—Dahl’s childhood haunt!
