Conwy's massive military power springs from the rock on which it stands and from which it seems to grow naturally. Soaring curtain walls and eight huge round towers give the Castle - a World Heritage Site-an intimidating presence undimmed by the passage of time. The views from the battlements are breathtaking, looking out across mountains and sea and down to the roofless shell of the great hall. Conwy's other great medievil glory is it's circuit of town walls. Over three quarters of a mile long and guarded by no less than 21 towers it is one of the finest in the world
