A Monopoly edition based on Wales with rule books in both English and Welsh.
The impressive 'Caernarfon Castle' is featured in the indigo section of the 'Wales-Cymru' edition of Monopoly. The two indigo sections are always reserved for the most exclusive, expensive and notable properties.

Wales is bustling with attractions like the National Heritage Parks and over 100 Castles. Now you can tour this amazing Country and all its famous mountains and beach locations with the Wales - Cymru edition Monopoly. From the much-loved Castles to the Wales Millennium Centre, it's all up for grabs as you race around the board building a property empire to beat your opponents.

"Caernarfon Castle’s pumped-up appearance is unashamedly muscle-bound and intimidating. Picking a fight with this massive structure would have been a daunting prospect. By throwing his weight around in stone, King Edward I created what is surely one of the most impressive of Wales’s castles. Worthy of World Heritage status no less!" Text Source: (visit link)

It has a rich cultural heritage, evident in the lyrical language and the explosive arts scene, as one of Europe's oldest nations advances with new optimism and confidence.

This is then repeated in Welsh.
