  12. Caernarfon Castle (Welsh: Castell Caernarfon) is a medieval fortress in Caernarfon, Gwynedd, north-west Wales cared for by Cadw, the Welsh Government's historic environment service. There was a motte-and-bailey castle in the town ofCaernarfon from the late 11th century until 1283 when King Edward I of England began replacing it with the current stone structure. The Edwardian town and castle acted as the administrative centre of north Wales and as a result the defences were built on a grand scale. There was a deliberate link with Caernarfon's Roman past – nearby is the Roman fort ofSegontium – and the castle's walls are reminiscent of the Walls of Constantinople.

  13. Snowdon (Welsh: YrWyddfa,)is the highest mountain in Wales, at an altitude of 1,085 metres (3,560 ft) above sea level, and the highest point in the British Isles outside the Scottish Highlands. It is located in Snowdonia National Park (ParcCenedlaetholEryri) in Gwynedd, and has been described as "probably the busiest mountain in Britain". It is designated as a national nature reserve for its rare flora and fauna.

  14. St Davids Cathedral (Welsh: EglwysGadeiriolTyddewi), is situated in St Davids in the county of Pembrokeshire, on the most westerly point of Wales.

Narodzie, Narodzie, Tobie jestem wierny. Póki morze, jak mur, broni przeczysty, ukochany kraj, Niech trwa stary język Stara, górzysta Walio, raju bardów, Każda dolina, każde urwisko jest dla mnie piękne. Z dumą narodową, czarujący dla mnie jest Szmer Twych potoków i rzek. Nawet, jeśli wróg zdepcze moją ziemię, Stary język Walijczyków będzie tak żywy, jak zawsze. Ukryta ręka zdrady nie zagraża muzie, Ani dźwięcznej harfie mojego kraju.
