Gabalfa is a district in the north of the city of Cardiff.  It is characterised by an enormous fly over road (the Gabalfa Interchange) which crosses the A48 road in a north-south direction. The area is also the site of the All Nations Centre.

 

The name is derived from the Welsh 'Ceubalfa', which is literally translated as 'place of the boat'. It was formerly the site of a ferry crossing across the River Taff, upon which a school is now built.

 

The electoral ward of Gabalfa lies within the parliamentary constituency of Cardiff North. Gabalfa is currently served by two Liberal Democrats councillors - Ed Bridges, who was elected in the 2004 council elections, and Cathy Pearcy, who was elected in a 2002 by-election following the death of an incumbent Welsh Labour Party councillor.

 

It is bounded by Heath to the north, Cathays and Riverside to the South, and Llandaff North to the northwest.
