Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

Still on Anglesey standing in front of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch station. It's the longest place name in the UK. Traditionally tourists would come here, buy a platform ticket and have their photograph taken in front of the station. Today everyone was standing in front of the gift shop and having their photo taken, not sure why. The village is close to the Britannia Bridge. Originally called Llanfair Pwllgwyngyll, which means St Mary Church by the pool near the White Hazels. With the arrival of the railway somebody came up with this long name as a tourist attraction. The long name means - St Mary's Church in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool and the church of St. Tysilio llantysilio with a red cave.It worked as a tourist attraction as people still travel here. The name was used in Barbarella as a password. There is another reason to visit though. The Marquess of Anglesey's column is nearby, from the top you can see Snowdonia.
