2Beddgelert in Gwynedd
Source: Link
Along the borders of the very beautiful Snowdonia National Park is the village of Beddgelert. It should have been named after the hunting dog Gelert of Prince Llewelyn in 13th century based on the legend. This is a great location to spot nesting ospreys or gorgeous flower displays located at the crux of the rivers Colwyn and Glaslyn. This town is one of the most beautiful and curious to see because the Glaslyn River divides its streets. This town, located in Gwynedd (Snowdonia region), is very small and is characterized by being very peaceful. It is a town of great natural beauty, especially in spring, due to the small hill covered by violets and trees. But its appeal does not lie only in this particularity. It is also an interesting municipality because of the legend about Prince Llyweling the Great, who is believed to have lived there. According to what they say, he was a great hunting fan and always went with his dogs, having special affection for Gelert. However, she killed him for believing that he had attacked his son in his crib instead of seeing that he had defended him from the attack of a wolf. Before his grief, he raised the tomb, which is one of the main tourist attractions and that gives the town its name. Click the next ARROW to see the next image!
