Bangor is a small coastal town in Gwynedd, Northern Wales, the United Kingdom, about 230 miles (370 kilometres) northwest of London.
With a population of about 18,000 people, the oldest city in Wales is also one of the smallest in the UK. Home to the famous Bangor University, students account for the vast majority of the city’s population.
It may be small, but it is a cosmopolitan city with a uniquely intimate feel and more than enough to keep people engaged. Crammed with awesome bars, restaurants and live music, Bangor has many more amenities than one might expect, perfect for its very large student population. The friendly waterfront city offers the perfect mix of urban amenities with rural attractions.
Tucked in between the Snowdonia Mountains and the Irish Sea, Bangor is surrounded by some of the most stunning scenery, and offers some of the finest beaches in the UK. This outstanding natural beauty will entice you to take advantage of its stunning location between lectures.
The Snowdonia National Park is regularly voted one of the most scenic places in the world thanks to its soaring mountains, mirrored lakes, and breath-taking waterfalls.
Alongside its natural beauty, Bangor also draws attention with its beautiful architecture.
The city’s small size makes it perfect to explore its other attractions on foot. You can stroll around the streets of the city and take in some of its hidden gems and picturesque sites from its rich history, which stretches all the way back to the 6th century.
The Bangor Cathedral, one of the city’s main focal points, is a stunning work of architecture. Inside its gorgeous stained-glass windows, the cathedral’s beautiful wooden carvings give great insight into the city’s unique history.
The alluring architecture of the 18th century Penrhyn Castle looks like something straight out of a fairy tale. The neo-Norman castle is located on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park.
Bangor is also rich in art and culture, and STORIEL (formerly the Gwynedd Museum & Art Gallery, Bangor) showcases this history perfectly. With art that dates as far back as 1884, STORIEL has an assorted collection that is inspired by Wales’s culture and landscape.
Filled with cafes, restaurants, independent shops, and scenic surroundings, Bangor is an enticing city for students. Bangor will give you the best of both worlds - a small university hub which offers many opportunities to enjoy a wonderful student life.
With its compact size and large student population, you won’t have to go far to see your peers, or stumble upon a fun student-run event in Bangor.
The city is well connected by trains. You can be in Liverpool and Manchester in just over two hours, with several daily trains running directly to London in just over three hours.

When it’s time to eat out, Bangor won’t disappoint you. The city has several restaurants and cafés that serve mouth-watering dishes.
For national culinary treasures, head to the quaint Whistlestop on the Pier, a tiny bijou café with a big reputation perched at the end of the Victorian Pier. Enjoy a menu packed with Welsh delights, including the Welsh Rarebit, and awesome views overlooking the Menai Strait and the towering peaks of Snowdonia.
Blue Sky, a cosy aesthetic café that serves delicious locally sourced food, is arguably the most famous cafe in the city.
Outside of the eateries that specialise in local cuisine, Bangor is also home to several good Asian restaurants, including Garden Hotel & Cantonese Restaurant, Aroy Dee Thai Noodle Bar, and Jasmine House.
If you’re vegan, vegetarian-friendly restaurants like Kyffin Café Deli, and Voltaire, will have you covered. Domu’s creative menu features things like the local favourite avocado and courgette cake, peanut-butter pretzels, fragrant coconut curry, and salad stuffed with halloumi, falafel, and pomegranates. Domu will offer you more than a vegan fix, though. The vegetarian café will keep you caffeinated as much as it will keep you fed, with bespoke blends of beans from Peru, India, and El Salvador.
Home to Wales’ longest high street, shopaholics can also fulfil their shopping appetites in Bangor. Hunt for deals from a mixture of high street stores, independent boutiques, and chain stores.
