Geocache Description:

This is a short offset multi that will take you to a quiet spot in the busy civic centre of Cardiff for a little exploration. The final nano cache is a short walk away once you have acquired the necessary information. I have given an unsubtle hint to aid stealthy retrieval in this busy area.


The given location is for the entrance to the Cardiff UN Peace Garden. It is situated between the busy North Road and the Welsh National Temple of Peace. In the summer it’s a beautiful peaceful spot to sit and contemplate. In the winter it’s just as nice, though it can be a little squelchy under foot – you have been warned!

To find the cache, take a walk around the garden and take a look at the various monuments and memorials.  Answer the questions below and feed the values into the following equation.  Where the answer to a question is a letter, do a simple substitution A=1, B=2 etc.

The cache can be found at:

N51° (I+J+D).(D)(C/E)(E+F)
W003° (A+G).(L-H)(K-B)(F+G)

Where:

AB. Cardiff was designated a Sri Chinmoy Peace Capital in 19AB
C. Mrs Thomas was a woman of Peace. Her first name begins with which letter?
D. Which right is the Right to Refuse to Kill?
EF. A colourful memorial commemorates the 20th anniversary of the Peace walk from Cardiff to Greenham Common in 19EF.
GH. When Nelson Mandela visited Cardiff he had high praise for this man, born 19GH
I. The anniversary of the creation of the NHS is marked by the planting of a tree beginning with which letter?
JK. The Armenian memorial was vandalised on JK January.
L. The civilian victims of war are commemorated by a tree placed by Mr Davies. His first name begins with which letter?


This cache was placed with the kind permission of the Temple of Peace and Public Health Wales.
Please enter and exit the Garden via the arched pedestrian entrance at the given co-ordinates and not through the Car Park.
