Truro
Truro is Cornwall’s only city, with a striking three spired cathedral above a lively centre of independent shops, cafes and Georgian architecture built on the wealth of the old tin and copper trade. It is Cornwall’s main hub for shopping and culture, with the Royal Cornwall Museum, good rail and road links and the Fal Estuary a short drive away.
