Cardiff Bay occupies the former docklands that once handled enormous quantities of coal exported from the South Wales valleys during the industrial era. After the decline of traditional dock activity, large-scale regeneration transformed the waterfront through new housing, cultural institutions, public spaces and the construction of the Cardiff Bay Barrage, which created a large freshwater area from the former tidal estuary. The result is one of Britain’s most dramatic examples of dockland redevelopment, combining surviving maritime heritage with some of the Welsh capital’s most important contemporary architecture. ---- Explore our playlists and videos on our YouTube channel: Quick City Guides: Don’t Waste a Second in These Cities https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9yWsVo_KfRT9_qCPsZJBbRW World Capitals https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9w5KyTcmYLdGH9JCZcmk2Da Iconic Landmarks https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9x4D_7xywTkwcA_dHnuu2hJ Modern Architecture & Skyscrapers https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9zJU2OPPUrFBWG8HRznldsQ Cultural Centers Around the World https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9zHU6H0lekigLgsPYbfQXnm Trains, Metros & Airports https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9xv8HFpPkc-85iXzvGvHUrp The Best Train Journeys Across Europe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7jj6_0ieHg&list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9yU87skZLhS9nGk_pWKF6jJ From the Airplane: Landings & Takeoffs https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9y-JUmWAwjD4WjroD11HRzh ---- Epic explores cities, architecture, transportation systems and urban landscapes around the world through real footage. #CardiffBay #Cardiff #Wales
