Highlights
- Cardiff Castle - Cardiff Castle is the centrepiece of the city and the historical point from which Cardiff emerged. It has also appeared in Doctor Who occasionally, from Rebel Flesh in Series 6 to Heaven Sent in Series 10, and even portrays the Great Wall of China…
- City Hall - Cardiff City Hall has become one of the most frequently used buildings in Doctor Who in recent years, featuring as various locations from the White House to the Shadow Proclamation.
- National Museum Cardiff - Arguably the most used building in all of modern Doctor Who, the National Museum of Wales often, and perhaps unsurprisingly, portrays a museum on numerous occasions.
- Cardiff University - The Main Building of Cardiff University has appeared sporadically over the years but becomes a regular fixture as St. Luke’s University in Series 10. Additionally, the Glamorgan Building of Cardiff University is one of the most frequently filmed buildings in Doctor Who history.

- Saint Mary Street - Cardiff’s central nightlife strip has appeared consistently over the years, from early Christmas specials like Runaway Bride all the way up to the present day in The Church on Road Road.
- HOUSE OF FRASER - The old House of Fraser, or even older Howell’s Department Store, has been a regular fixture of Doctor Who, from the first episode in 2005, Rose, through to even the most recent stories.
- St John The Baptist City Parish Church - Finally, we finish off in the centre of town at St. John the Baptist Church, which features one of Cardiff’s most unexpected hidden decorations…
