An interactive map and soundtrack have been launched to help visitors discover more about Wales' history.

allows users to pinpoint 50 of Wales' sites and monuments, which have been separated into 12 different themes.

Audio guides detailing Wales' "heroes and heroines" such as Prince Llywelyn the Great can also be downloaded.

Songs by Welsh singer Duffy and folk group 9Bach feature on a "road trip" soundtrack.

The map, part of the Welsh government's Pan-Wales Interpretation Plan, aims to bring Wales' heritage to life, while maximising the economic value of heritage tourism.

About 42 million British tourism visits were made to places in Wales during the first six months of 2015.
