Certainly is. Parked outside a couple of days ago - parking in Conwy is always at a premium an you do get booked  if you overstay (I know!). I still prefer driving through Conwy rather than use the quicker A55 expressway, as the ability to go through such an extraordinary and ancient town is a novelty which doesn't seem to ever wear off. My mother still has a painting on her wall bought when the suspension bridge was still the only way to cross the Conwy river here (pre-1958) which I grew up with. Conwy is full of history and very photogenic with lots of buildings like the Castle Hotel. Some have very old cellars which even have cobbled floors. Great town.

PGK and Mike,

 

Thanx for noticing and for the history lessons. It turns out that my great great grandfather emigrated from near Conwy. My wife and I are planning on returning next October and maybe we can find a Williams who helped create my gene pool.

Be warned. I used to work with a young lady with the surname Williams. She got married but her surname remained the same. Its far from uncommon here!

PM me if you are coming over though and I can give you some suggestions as to where you might really enjoy from local knowledge.
