To get a taste of Welsh culture and tradition, visit the Newport Indoor Market. Reconstructed in 1887, this traditional market hall is a great place to taste local foods, like bara brith and Welsh cakes, or pick up some handmade crafts.

Although Newport has attracted many of the big-name brands and usual high street shops, what makes the city special is that it has managed to maintain a large proportion of its independent stores, restaurants, and cafes. You can find some of the best shopping and dining on Clytha Park Road, the perfect place to begin a pleasant walk.
