Caernarfon Tide Out by Helwin Owen
Most visitors come to Caernarfon for the castle, and rightly so. The castle and town walls are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and, according to them, " the finest examples of late 13th century and early 14th century military architecture in Europe". But the town and harbour is also worth a mosey around if you're there for a day trip or as part of a short break on the North Wales coast. Photo credit Helwin Owen on Flickr CC BY-SA 2.0

Caernarfon Castle by Erwan Deverre
Caernarfon = Caer (fortress) + yn (located at) + arfon (opposite Mon, or Anglesey). So ... the fortress opposite Anglesey. Which explains why Caernarfon makes the perfect base for exploring Anglesey and the Llyn Peninsular whilst having plenty to see and do itself including the castle and town walls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and, according to them, " the finest examples of late 13th century and early 14th century military architecture in Europe".
