The ruins of Aberystwyth Castle are both interesting in themselves and a good vantage point to view the town and coast.

Three more views of the castle ruins.

The view from the castle over the seafront, pier and part of the town.

Looking in a similar direction showing more of the town and the interesting looking triangular building.

The headland to the north has a cliff railway to the top.

Three views looking south from the castle site.

The harbour at Aberystwyth is the mouths of two rivers one of which, the Ystwyth, gives the town its name.

Aberystwyth Castle seen from the seafront near the harbour.

Aberystwyth is the coastal terminus of the Vale of Rheidol Railway, a narrow gauge steam line, the inland terminal at Devils Bridge features on my other site at  Vale of Rheidol Railway .
