Do you know the longest place name in Britain?

It is in Wales. It is called :

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantisiliogogogoch! As you can see, Welsh is a very different language from English! Eisteddfod is also a Welsh word , and the name for Wales in Welsh is “Cymru” . If you want to hear how to hear how to say the name of the longest place you can find it on the internet at: http;// www.visitwales.com/sequence/link/93

Dear Shuhrat . I’ve just been to the Eisteddfod festival in Wales. It is a very old tradition. The first one was held in the sixth century! I was surprised the festival was very popular. There were more than 10,000 people there. The festival is a competition. There were choirs, harp players and poets who read their poems. I enjoyed the music but I couldn’t understand anything else as the Eisteddfod is in Welsh! At the end of the a ‘’crowned bard’’ or poet was chosen. It is a great honour to be the bard.

Hope you like the Welsh lady in national costume on this postcard! Oh, and the symbol of Wales – the leek and the dragon !

Love Katy.
