The National Slate Museum

We love The National Slate Museum in Llanberis. The car park fee of £4 is reasonable when compared to the parking near the Snowdon Railway (£7) and it also gives access to a lovely walk around Vivan Quarry (I'll post pics another time.) 

The Slate Museum is free - astonishing when you can explore factory workrooms and offices, see videos about the history of slate mining, watch demonstrations about splitting slate and wander around cottages that show domestic and social history.
