Landmarks of the British Isles

Malahide Castle is north-east of Dublin City, Ireland, and dates back to the 12th century. It is in the middle of a large park and was used both a fortress and a family home. It is a spooky place because people often see ghosts there.

Conwy Castle in Gwynedd, Wales, is a classical 13th century fortress. It is a masterpiece of medieval architecture that took seven years to build. It has eight big towers that offer great views of the nearby river and the Snowdonian mountains.

Edinburgh Castle is Scotland’s most famous castle. It is very popular with tourists and around 1 million people visit it every year. It is a very unique castle as it was built on top of an extinct volcano.

The Tower of London sits on the banks of the River Thames. The Tower is guarded by Yeoman Warders, or ‘Beefeaters’. Eight big, black birds called ravens live in the Tower. There’s a legend that says if they ever fly away, the Tower will fall down.
