Looking for a special place to relax? From sightseeing, picnics, to boat riding, Roath is not your ordinary park; it offers several features for different age groups and people with different tastes for nature, all in one area.<\/strong>

\nA bank of swans swims in harmony, their necks stretched out ready for guests, as other wild birds fly overhead across the lake. The pride of the park, the lake, sitting on 30 acres, is just among the many breath-taking sites on Roath Park.
\nRoath Park is a perfect get-away from the busy life around\u00a0Cardiff\u00a0City Centre but short enough for one to walk there in 30 minutes. It is a spot for\u00a0those looking to experience the unique beauty of nature and to reflect on life.
\nOn the park lake, is a white vertical imposing figure of the Scott memorial light house, which according to Anthony, one of the park rangers, and from the information on one of the park boards, was built to commemorate the fateful voyage of Captain Fober Falcon Scott to the Antarctic in his ship the S.D Terra Nova in 1910. The lake also has a caf\u00e9 where one can get\u00a0refreshments. Above the cafe is a sitting area where one can enjoy the beautiful view of the lake, birds and the gardens.
