Lonely Planet review for Great Orme Mines
Halfway up the tramline to Great Orme is Great Orme Mines, a Bronze Age copper mine that was possibly one of the most important sources of the metal during that era. It's the oldest Bronze Age copper mine in the world that's open to visitors (the Guinness Book of Records confirms this). Take the self-guided tour to explore 4 miles of 3500-year-old tunnels.
