Culverhouse Cross (Welsh: Croes Cwrlwys) is suburban district in the west of Cardiff, capital of Wales, lying on the border with the Vale of Glamorgan.
The busy Culverhouse Cross roundabout is an important part of the primary road network to the west of the city and connects the A4232 (northbound to the M4 motorway Junction 33, and southbound to Cardiff Bay and Cardiff City Centre), the A4050 (to Barry), and the A48 (westbound to Cowbridge and Bridgend, and eastbound to North and East Cardiff). A number of retail parks form around the roundabout and the Copthorne Hotel Cardiff-Caerdydd.

Famous quotes containing the word cross:
“Flood-tide below me! I see you face to face!
Clouds of the west—sun there half an hour
high—I see you also face to face.
Crowds of men and women attired in the usual costumes, how curious you are to me!
On the ferry-boats the hundreds and hundreds that cross, returning
home, are more curious to me than you suppose,
And you that shall cross from shore to shore years hence are more to me, and more in my meditations, than you might suppose.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
