  Holiday in Wales 2010 Now this place was BRILLIANT. This is Dan-Yr-Ogof caves centre and dinosaur park. Its north of Swansea, going up into Powys, just inside the Brecon Beacons National Park. Click on picture to enlarge.
  It has a massive dinosaur park with life-size fibreglass dinosaur models. Click on picture to enlarge. Holiday in Wales 2010
  Holiday in Wales 2010 It actually has a whole valley filled with life-size fibreglass dinosaurs. It is an awesome place. Click on picture to enlarge.
  I have to say I think this is a family day out second only to Longleat. I highly suggest to anyone to take their kids here. Click on picture to enlarge. Holiday in Wales 2010
  Holiday in Wales 2010 As well as the dinosaurs at Dan-Yr-Ogof, there are three massive underground caves you can look around. One is a cathedral cave where you can actually arrange to get married inside, as long as you wear a hardhat and carry a flashlight. This is me and the lads inside one of the caves. My camera isn't good enough to pick up the inside of the caves, I suggest you check out the website www.showcaves.co.uk to see pics of the inside of the caves. They are stunning.
