Hidden within Britain's smallest city, St Davids Cathedral is one of Wales' most important religious landmarks. Built on the site associated with Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, the cathedral has been a major pilgrimage destination for over a thousand years. Medieval pilgrims travelled here believing that two visits to St Davids were equal to one visit to Rome. The cathedral's remote location made it one of the most significant spiritual destinations in medieval Britain. Visitors can explore the magnificent medieval architecture, the nearby ruins of the Bishop's Palace and the peaceful surroundings of St Davids. Combined with the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and nearby campsites, this is one of Wales' finest heritage-and-landscape experiences.
