Llandudno is a holiday town in North Wales in the UK.

Llandudno is the largest holiday town in Wales. It has a wonderful Victorian Promenade and Pier.

The beach stretches from two mountain ranges, the Great Orme and the Little Orme.

This gives the visitor fantastic scenery to enjoy as they sit on the many benches along the Pier and Promenade.

If you decide to visit this Victorian town on vacation you will also be able to enjoy wonderful free attractions on Llandudno Promenade. 

Professor Codman's Punch and Judy Show on Llandudno Promenade

This Punch and Judy show is free for everyone to enjoy twice daily at 2pm and 4 pm during the summer months of June, July and August. The show takes place on the promenade and the children sit on the ground in front of the theatre.

The Punch and Judy show was first opened by a descendant of the present owner Mr Codman in 1860.

A free children’s paddling pool and playground on Llandudno Promenade

The pool is open from June to September.

There are plenty of benches and space for the children and parents to enjoy the facilities.

There are also very clean free public toilets beside the pool.

Also at the paddling pool there is a café which has plenty of tables both inside and out.

The café has very nice and reasonably priced food.

The menu ranges from hot food, sandwiches, all hot and cold drinks, ice creams and cakes.

There is also a small shop that sells beach items for the children in the pool.

This description does not do this wonderful free facility on Llandudno promenade justice so I have included a number of my own photographs for you to see for yourself.

Llandudno Pier

Llandudno Pier was built in 1878 and is now over 2,200 feet long. The structure is protected as a Grade II listed building.

A walk along the pier is very pleasant with lots of small shops, cafes and a fun fair at the entrance to the pier.

Once you walk past all these attractions then the visitor can enjoy a wonderful peaceful walk along the pier.

To the left is the edge of the Great Orme Mountain within touching distance.

All along the pier there are also many wooden benches for the visitor to sit down, relax and enjoy the pier.

The scenery is marvelous especially as the sun is going down.

Take your camera too!

Great hub Viking. Llandudno is a wonderful place to visit, especially when the Victorian Extravaganza week is on. All the old funfair rides and stalls brought back many a enjoyable memory. Love the Punch and Judy too, well worth a visit

What a beautiful place to visit! I always passed by Llandudno in going to Ireland but never stop and visit the place. The whole Wales is lovely. Maybe I can visit this place one day. Great travel hub. Thanks for sharing.

Llandudno in Wales is really a fantastic place to spend a few days of your holidays. And I agree Thelma that Wales has some great scenery too. Hopefully you will stop for a few days on the way to Ireland, it will be worth it.
