The village with the longest name...

Dear ESO students,

Miquel (2n ESO A) has sent me the name of the village with the longest name in the world. It's in Wales and it's got 58 letters!!!! Amazing, isn't it?

(In Welsh)

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

(And in English)

"St Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the rapid whirlpool of Llantysilio of the red cave"

Thanks, Miquel.
