Rhiwbina is a residential ward situated in the north of Cardiff, bordering the open countryside of Caerphilly county.

The ward contains a significant amount of green space, including the large and popular Wenallt Hill, which offers woodland walks and extensive views back across the city. Rhiwbina Garden Village, with its distinctive cottage-style houses and communal greens, provides a specific architectural character to one part of the area.
