Pierhead Building, Cardiff Bay

Cardiff Bay is Europe's largest waterfront development. It is supplied by two rivers, the Taff and Ely, to form a 500-acre (2.0 km2) freshwater lake around the former dockland area of the city. Built in 1996, the waterfront has hundreds of shops, cafes, restaurants, and other attractions.
