TAKE a deep breath and say it with me: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. No, I didn't just drop something on the keyboard, that is the actual name of a train station in Anglesey, serving the village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyll.

The train station with the longest name in the world is located on the island of Anglesey in Wales. Its full name is Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. The name contains 58 letters (or 51 in the Welsh alphabet, where 'll' and 'ch' are single letters). It translates to: "St. Mary's Church in the hollow of the white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the church of St. Tysilio near the red cave." The name was actually created as a publicity stunt in the 1860s by a local tailor who wanted to entice tourists to visit the village and stop at the railway station. The plan worked; today, the station is a world-famous landmark where thousands of visitors stop each year just to take a photo with the massive station sign. While the village is usually just called "Llanfairpwll" or "Llanfair PG" by locals, the railway station maintains the full, official name to uphold its Guinness World Record status and its reputation as the ultimate linguistic challenge for travelers in the UK.
