Bangor is a picturesque city in an ideal location to tour the whole of North Wales. I've included some of my favourite photos to try and show the diversity of buildings and scenery in and around the area of this Cathedral/University city. With the completion of the A55 Expressway and the main Holyhead to London rail line passing through you really can "Take a Daytrip to Bangor" now.
I hope you enjoy the photos and you can always sign the guestbook to let me know if you like them.
