New Monopoly game for Wales

What do Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff Castle and the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama all have in common? Ok, so the title gave it away but they're all appearing on the new Cardiff Monopoly board game launched this week.

After an online public vote, Wales Millennium Centre took the prime location on the board (equivalent of Mayfair) and was home to the official launch earlier in the week.

Other landmarks you may recognise include the Senedd, the Millennium Stadium and National Museum Cardiff. The local rugby and football teams also get a mention alongside several of the city's parks.

However, Cardiff isn't the first Welsh city to be immortalised by the famous board game. Swansea got it's own game back in 2005 featuring Morgans Hotel, the Dylan Thomas Centre and the National Waterfront Museum.
