Leeds

Leeds is one of those English cities that are in the shadow of the great cities that we all know. However, when traveling to England, it is practically essential to visit these cities somewhat smaller because they have unique characteristics that you should not miss under any circumstances. This is all you have to see in Leeds:

Civic Hall

In Leeds there is a lot to see, starting, for example, with your Civic Hall. The Civic Hall of Leeds is located in the center of the city, and is a large white building, nestled in one of the largest squares. In addition, your visit will be very profitable, since, in addition, is near the Museum of the City (which we will talk a little later), and in an area with a lot of restaurants and pubs.

Victoria Cross

Also worth a visit is the Victoria Cross, which is one of the cultural centers of the city. Next to it is the Leeds Art Gallery, so you can also make a very interesting cultural visit. It is a must for those who seek a tourism that is not limited to knowing the streets of the city.

On the other hand, the aforementioned Museum of the City, also deserves your attention. Its appearance seen from the outside is that of a majestic building, but, inside, that image is multiplied by two.

Royal Armories Museum

A visit that you can not miss the Royal Armories Museum also deserves special attention, where you can visit the different historical stages through the war. By the way, the entrance is free, so you have no excuse not to visit it!

Leeds Bridge

Another of the most important places in the city is the Leeds Bridge, since it is one of the busiest steps that cross the river that divides the city in two. It is also interesting the Vicar Lane, one of the most important streets of the city, which connects the market with the commercial area.

Corn Exchange

And, at the end of the street, you find the Corn Exchange, which is probably the most charismatic building in Leeds. It is a very important Victorian building, not only at the level of Leeds, but at the level of the whole United Kingdom. It was restored relatively recently, so it is a good time to visit.

And, of course, a must see is the City Market, located in the center of the city. It is a spectacular building, that evokes the films set a few centuries ago, and that surprises for its beauty.

Sandal Castle

Finally, if you want to make a small excursion to see archaeological remains, you can visit the Sandal Castle, where you will find some ruins of a medieval castle next to a large lake. So, in addition to an entertaining visit, you can rest in a natural and beautiful place.

As you can see, Leeds has a lot to offer you even if it is not as famous as Oxford or London. Our most sincere recommendation is that you do not miss the opportunity to know this fantastic city. Worth.
