Rainbow village

While other Snowdonia towns and villages are typified by the grey shades of slate and granite, Llanberis has become an explosion of colour.


Brian Wakeham, who is retired and lives in the village, made this video which vividly captures the way many Llanberis high street businesses have got creative with the paint brush.

The finished effect has its supporters and critics. Use the comment form below to let us know what you think.

I find it so pretty! The colours brighten up the Llanberis and the people there. I love Llanberis. I want to visit there more often.

Some of colours used are pleasing and enhance the buildings, sadly others do not, they just look gaudy!
