Swansea: Swansea has been recently named as the cleanest city in Wales and is the second cleanest city in the whole of the UK.
Swansea was once called Sweins ey, which roughly translates as Swein’s island. It is not certain who Swein was, but legend has it that he was a Norseman who built a fort in Swansea in 100AD and used it as a base to raid the rest of Wales. In 1823 the first ever human fossil was discovered near Swansea in the Gower Peninsula. The Red Lady of Paviland (who is actually a man) dates back over 33,000 years and was dyed by the red ochre in the surrounding rocks
Newport:Some of Newport's most notable museums and art galleries include the city's outstanding 'Open-Air Museum' - which offers a sculpture trail around the city, passing many prominent art works along the way. Around Newport you will also discover a number of rather eye-catching buildings, many of which have a particularly interesting past. The third-biggest city in the whole of the country, Newport stands in the Gwent area and is an important centre of industry and commerce.
