EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the picturesque scene of sailing boats gracefully bobbing on the tranquil waters of the Menai Strait, with the imposing Caernarfon Castle standing proudly in the background. Dating back to the 1900s, this image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The Menai Strait, located in Caernarfon, Caernarfonshire, Wales, has long been a popular destination for sailors, with its sheltered waters providing ideal conditions for sailing. In this photograph, we see a number of boats of various sizes and designs, their sails billowing in the gentle breeze. The boats, with their elegant lines and timeless appeal, add a sense of serenity to the scene. But the true star of the photograph is Caernarfon Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most iconic structures in Wales. Built between 1283 and 1330, the castle was commissioned by King Edward I as part of his campaign to conquer Wales. Its impressive fortifications, including the eight large towers and the imposing Eagle Tower, are a testament to the military might of the time. Despite the passage of time, the scene remains unchanged, with the sailing boats and the castle continuing to draw visitors from around the world. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring charm of the Menai Strait and the rich history of Caernarfon and Wales.
