Nestled just inside the Welsh border in Brecon Beacons National Park, Hay-on-Wye is known the world over for its literary festival; held every June, this "Woodstock of the mind," according to Bill Clinton, draws thousands of people hungry to see established and up-and-coming writers alike. But you can get your literary fix year-round - Hay-on-Wye is also known for its bookshops cramming every block in town, most specializing in antique and secondhand finds.
