Tywyn
Home to the Talyllyn Railway and the Cadfan Stone — an early medieval cross bearing the oldest known written Welsh — this small seaside town sits on the Cardigan Bay shoreline in southern Gwynedd, Wales. Its sandy beach and promenade front the water directly, with the hills of Snowdonia National Park rising to the east. The church of St Cadfan has drawn pilgrims for over a thousand years, and an early Marconi radio station once operated here.
