Thousands of people have been flocking to the Royal Welsh Show this week.

For many, the four-day agricultural event, organised by the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society, is a highlight of the year, celebrating rural life, farming and Welsh culture.

Here is a selection of images from the show in Llanelwedd, near Builth Wells, Powys, so far.
