Hay on Wye, known for its literary festival, is a town that lies mostly in Wales but where you could, technically, have one foot in one country and one in another. It is very much a book-lovers paradise with countless bookshops stocked with treasures that would be hard to find almost anywhere else.
It was fairly quiet on this day, toward the end of May during the festival, it shall probably attract visitors of about 80,000. But on this chilly afternoon, only a few people were visiting these streets.
It's not a large town by any means but it has its own castle and more nightlife than one might normally expect in a town this size. But, mostly, it is just a rural town lying on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. A very fine place to spend a lazy day, rummaging around book and antique shops, enjoying coffee and ice cream, or simply wandering around and enjoying the easy-going ambience.
