Caerphilly is a Welsh town seven miles north of Cardiff, which is on the Southern coast of Wales. Caerphilly Castle, built in the late 13th and early 14th century, is concentric (castle within a castle) in architecture, with a double moat. The view in this picture is from the southwest. The castle's most distinguishing feature, the leaning tower, is most striking from this view. Much of the exterior walls visible from this view have undergone modern repair.
