This is my home town, once known by the Viking name Swain’s Eye. Legend has it it was a Vikings stop over and named after a chieftain who either frequented or settled here.
The pictures look beautiful and just the name of Vikings give a tickle in my spine… I really love their legends and lifestyle… Thank you for giving us an opportunity to see the beauty!
My pleasure. Swansea may be smaller than some of the bigger cities in the UK but it has it’s own history and beauty. Even our Dylan Thomas called it his “ugly, lovely town”.
Is this a real place?

Wow. That’s a big city… though you are saying it’s a town, I guess. Looks cool though, from up there.

It was declared a city 50 years ago but it ain’t all that big in comparison to some others. Your right though, it’s a good shot, thanks Tara 👍🏻
