Beaumaris Castle is on the Welsh island of Anglesey. It's such an impressive castle but it wasn't finished.
There are 12 towers and 2 gatehouses along the outer walls. As you can see, it's surrounded by a moat. At the southern end, the castle can be supplied by ship.
It was the last of King Edward I castle projects, which ended in the 1320s.
So, it's known as "the greatest castle never built."
Visitors are welcome- learn more at the website.

When you cross the bridge from the mainland, you pass through the Welsh town with the outsized name: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
