St Davids, Cathedral city in Pembrokeshire, United Kingdom.
St Davids stands as Britain's smallest city, situated within Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, featuring narrow streets lined with art galleries and a medieval cathedral.
The settlement originated from a monastery established in the 6th century, later developing into a cathedral city that received royal status in 1995.
The annual St Davids Cathedral Festival in May presents classical music performances within the 12th-century purple stone cathedral, celebrating Welsh musical traditions.
Visitors can access the city through regular bus services from Fishguard and Haverfordwest railway stations, with coastal shuttle services connecting various points.
The cathedral's location in a valley below the city level protected it from Viking raiders, making it necessary to approach through the medieval Tower Gate.
