While you may automatically think of our amazing coastline and stunning mountains when you think of Wales, we have some beautiful gardens too - and two are named among the top 30 British gardens to visit, with one topping the list.
Using travel reviews and ratings from travel website TripAdvisor, the Indian Fire Bowl Company complied the list. And coming first with a rating of five out of five stars and over 2,000 reviews is Bodnant Garden, near Conwy.
This National Trust site is home to 80 acres of nature from wildflowers to riverside scenes and manicured lawns making it the perfect garden for all seasons.
