    So funny. As you were learning about the swords, you were standing right where King Charles became Prince of Wales!
    When Miles is a bit older, there's a series of books called the Dark is Rising Sequence. They are set un Cornwall and Wales. They are a wonderful young reader tale of King Arthur!

    My home town. Caernarfon castle was part of the English king Edwards ring of steel around North Wales to control the Welsh. The castle was never finished and over 20 years to build. Others where built along the coast to form the ring of steel all strategically placed to be no more than a days march between them so they could reinforce each other if needed.

    If you like the sword play, I know a group of reenactment group that performs in Renaissance Faires and the like, if you care to watch them.
    Thank you again.

    Chris, what I've been learning from your England vlogs is that the country has a very rich history with it's castles. Thank you so much for the tour of Caernarfon Castle, I picked up a lot of things about this. The colors of the UK flag have such a uniqueness to it. If you ever go to England again, go check out the Amy Winehouse statue in Camden Town. Camden Town is a town with a lot of markets in it. Amy would go there all the time and she labeled that town her playground.

    Croeso I Gymru!! The video going round and round the tower brought back some core childhood memories of summers going to Pembroke Castle. Da iawn for tackling all those stairs - they would have killed me. It would be an absolute crime to name that train anything other than Thomas. I am glad you had a proper Welsh weather day, aka ALL the weather in one day. Getting to see people experience where my family is from is a joy, so keep up the great work.

    No way can’t believe you visited Caernarfon castle I live where you set off in Holyhead the Caernarfon pronounced (kire-nar-von) castle is stunning. It was built in 1283 at a cost of £25000 or $32000. Great video also loved all your Japan videos.

    Too bad I couldn’t chat directly with you while you were at the castle. I grew up with my grandmother and her family who had immigrated from Wales. I could help you get through all those difficult pronunciations 😁. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the castle. I’ve seen many photos of it but this was the first video of the interior. Very nice. Oh. I can pronounce that ultra long name too but admittedly with considerable difficulty. But the Welsh shorten it to llanfair PG 😁.

    I am enjoying your videos. I will never go to the places you have been and are going to. Scotland is where my dads side of the family is from. They were coal miners for the most part. I imagine that some of the coal loaded on the Titanic, could have been doug out by my family. Scotlad was also a place in the 16th and 17th century that canons were made. They used coal to heat the metals to form canons. In the 16th an 17 century, miners were not treated very well either. Have fun! I look forward to your next videos.

    The arrow slits were made for crossbows not longbow arrows.
    The archers paradox ( movement of arrow off the bow) would shatter the arrow going through a slit that small.
    A cross bow bolt comes off the rail straight and spins like a bullet.

    Just a few things, fro a local who works in museums and history. The Caernarfon Castle was built with striped walls to mirror the walls of Constantinople, as Edward I liked to think of himself like an Emperor. The museum is the Museum of the Royal Welch (sic) Fusiliers, who fought in North America throughout the War of Independence. They were present at Concord, Bunker Hill, Brandywine, Guidlford Courthouse and Yorktown. The colours are the flags, not the medal ribbons.

    Caernarfon (car-nar-von) Castle was built by King Edward I of England (the king in the movie Braveheart). He built it as a defense during the war of subjugation of Wales. It was built as a statement of power. Just looking at it tells you who's in charge! LOL It is the seat of power for the Prince of Wales- another of Edward's power plays. He had his wife travel there to give birth so he could say the next king was both English and Welsh! Thanks for sharing that gorgeous place with us! Keep having a great trip!😊
