Wales
Wales is famous for the vast unspoiled rolling valleys and rugged mountains and its massive national parks. The people there are welcoming and friendly, and known for the lyrical lilting their accent. The Welsh language (Cymraeg) is the oldest language in Britain; it could be up to 4,000 years old.
It has a slow pace and easy-going atmosphere, which you can even feel in the big cities like Cardiff and Swansea.
