Description
Parys Mountain, located near Amlwch on the Isle of Anglesey, is a historic site known for its extensive copper mining history dating back to the Bronze Age. In the late 18th century, it was the world’s largest copper mine, leading to the area’s nickname, the ‘Copper Kingdom’. The landscape is characterized by vibrant hues of reds, oranges, and purples, resulting from the mineral-rich soil. Today, visitors can explore the unique terrain shaped by centuries of mining activity.
