This web page might prove slightly more useful than Norman's reply:

(That's the first of 3 pages of attractions in Llandudno. Click the links, at the bottom of the page, to see more).

>there aint none

Normanthedog shows how ignorant he is on two counts.

First, if you say their "aint none" that means there "are some". Idiot

Secondly, Llandudno is a lovely town that was built in the Victorian times. The people who built it made all sorts of rules about how high buildings could be and how narrow roads could be and so if you are interested in old towns and old buildings then Llandidno is a delight.

It is on a beautiful bay and there is a lovely range of hotels along the sea front. These hotels were also built during victorian times and the height of the buildings (and even the color they can be painted) is controlled by the council.

A stroll along the "prom" is wonderful.

Pictures here (see the forth picture down for a loveely view of the prom and all the hotels)

There is a town trail round Llandudno if you fancy following it and seeing the history of the town.

More about it here

Right next to the town (you cannot miss it!) is the Great Orme.

This is a HUGE lump of rock that dominates the town.

You can get a tram from the town centre to the top where there are wonderful views.

There is also a visitor centre and cafe up there.

Every year they have a Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza where they celibrate the Victorian heritage of the town (in fact it is this weekend, 3rd to 5th May)

Here are some pictures of previous events.

It really is a lovely town and there is plenty to do in a day, the prom, the pier, the victorian town, the great orme, you will not have enough time.

If you fancy a drink or a bite to eat in amazing pub then try Wetherspoons in the centre of Llandudno.

This was originally the old theatre and the inside has been kept pretty much as it was, with the balcony still there, and the stage, even posters on the wall.

Here is a picture of the outside

***************,my reply was meant as a little lighthearted joke,its a shame someone of your limited iq,couldent see that.

[enigma884]

I assume you mean Llandudno? Great Orme has an artificial ski slope and toboggan as well as a tram. Its worth taking a walk downthe pier. If you dont mind getting a bus to Conwy (about 20mins away), there is a fantastic castle there you can go into with beatiful views around surrounding area. It all depends what you like. Enjoy!

If you cant add anything useful dont bother.

Some people have added useful things to do, all you have done is add a stupid, childish, moronic, (unfunny) reply.

I think we know who the one with limited iq is here.

I am fortunate to live in Conwy and as enigma884 has said it is beautiful. Vehelpfulguy and Buenchico we could do with you working for our tourist board, you have pretty much summed it up. One thing I must strongly disagree with is the food at Wetherspoons is awful, but the building is incredible.Hope the weather is good garlandk9 and you have a wonderful time, it really is a lovely place.

I was in Llandudno this weekend. We took a trip up the Great Orme on the tram. The first tram takes you half way up and then you get on a second tram to the summit. I have been on it before, and you do get spectacular views. Unfortunately yesterday wasnt a good day to see anything, too much mist.
Half way up the Orme, before you catch the second tram, you can visit the Bronze Age copper mines, about �8, put on a hard hat and enter the tunnels mined for copper about 3 thousand years ago.
Not recommended if your unsteady on your legs, but interesting.
In summer I go with my grandchildren on the beach, along the pier, and then watch Punch and Judy on the seafront.
It has a lovely bay, nice shops. I like it.
