Bangor, Cathedral city in Gwynedd, Wales
The city extends along the coast of North Wales beside the Menai Strait, with Bangor Mountain rising behind the central area.
The settlement began as a monastic establishment in the 6th century AD, founded by Saint Deiniol with structures made from wattled enclosures.
The Pontio Arts and Innovation Centre presents theater performances, music concerts, and cinema screenings throughout the year in multiple performance spaces.
The main shopping district contains numerous stores along one of Wales' longest high streets, connecting the upper and lower sections of the city.
The Garth Pier stretches 1,500 feet into the Menai Strait, making it the second-longest pier in Wales.
