As you stroll along its banks, you can catch glimpses of iconic landmarks like the Millennium Stadium, with its grandeur mirrored in the gentle ripples of the river.

The Trefforest Tin Works lithograph from 1840 showcases a bygone era when industry thrived along the Taff's shores. Delving deeper into history, an engraving titled "The Marriage of the Marquis of Bute" transports us to a time when celebrations echoed through Cardiff. And who could forget Tom Jones?
