Known for its rugged, natural landscapes and long history, still evident in numerous well-preserved castles, Wales is an ideal destination for both nature lovers and history buffs. This nation, on the southwestern part of the island of Great Britain, boasts hills, mountains, moors, forests, and coastline that is sandy in some places and rocky and rugged in others. Conservation is important in Wales, with several national parks covering expansive sections of the land. Smaller areas, dubbed Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty by the United Kingdom, enjoy protected status as well.
