Dolgellau is a historic market town situated at the foot of Cadair Idris in Gwynedd, North Wales. This former county town of Merionethshire lies within Snowdonia National Park and has a rich history dating back to the 12th century. The town is notable for its well-preserved architecture, featuring the largest concentration of early 19th-century buildings in Wales, many constructed from local dark-grey stone.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, Dolgellau was at the center of Wales's wool industry and also experienced a gold rush period with the nearby Clogau Gold Mine. Today, the town serves as a cultural and administrative center for the region, while its location makes it a popular base for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, and exploring Welsh heritage sites. The town maintains strong Welsh cultural traditions and language, with Welsh being widely spoken in the community.
