The town, known as the 'Queen of the Valleys' is home to around 35,000 people. It has a busy and vibrant shopping centre, with modern shops mixed in with well-established outlets and historical buildings.
Aberdare Park, which opened on July 27, 1869, is the perfect example of a Victorian age public park.
