Most students use the bus service services run by Cardiff City Bus Company, which run regularly across the whole city and out to the suburbs. Young persons (16-18) can purchase a discounted weekly ticket, but cycling and walking are popular with students. Twelve miles to the west of the city, Cardiff International Airport offers flights to a range of destinations.

At the heart of the city are a series of Palladian buildings, including the University of Wales, funded by the wealthy Marquess of Bute in the late 1800’s. In the tradition of rebuilding started by the Marquess, much of central Cardiff has been redeveloped and the area south of the University consists mainly of the glass ‘towers’ of modernity.
