Cardiff is the capital and largest city of Wales, a division of the United Kingdom. It is also the chief economic, industrial, and cultural center of Wales. Cardiff lies on the southeast coast of Wales and borders with the Bristol Channel, an arm of the Atlantic Ocean.
Three rivers-the Taff, the Ely, and the Rhymney-flow through Cardiff into the Bristol Channel. A number of docks line the coast, and many factories are nearby.
A large area of parkland lies near the center of Cardiff. The Civic Center and many of the city's major commercial buildings are clustered around Cathays Park in this area. The Civic Center includes the Law Courts, City Hall, National Museum of Wales, and the University College. Nearby are the National Sports Center, National School of Medicine, many fashionable shops and modern hotels, and Cardiff Castle. The castle was built in 1090. Cardiff is also the home of the medieval Llandaff Cathedral, the Welsh Industrial and Maritime Museum, and the Welsh Folk Museum.
