Fodor's Expert Review The Royal Welsh Museum

The military exhibits here span centuries of conflict; some relate to battles in which this famous regiment and its Welsh predecessors participated. There's a vast collection of militaria, which is of interest mostly to fans of military history. The 3,000 or so medals on display include copies of 16 Victoria Crosses (the British equivalent of the Purple Heart) owned by the regiment. The Zulu Room recalls the defense of Rorke's Drift in the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879, an action dramatized in the 1964 film Zulu.
