Leeds shopping guide 2019 (Things to do in Leeds)
Explore Leeds's most popular shopping locations with this virtual tour around the city. With numerous shopping streets, centres and arcades it is easy for first time visitors to the city to feel overwhelmed. Where should I go first? How far is it from here to there? Should I get the bus with my shopping or can I walk?
I've mapped out an easy route around the city, taking into consideration the likelihood that you'll be increasing your haul along the journey.
This video guides you along a route which prioritises up hill walking first, allowing an easier walk later whilst you have more bags. The route also includes a couple of rest areas for drinks and snacks, and saves the more popular shopping locations (where you're more likely to make purchases) for towards the end of the day when you won't have as far to carry everything.
Included in the list is:
Merrion centre
St. Johns centre
The Core shopping centre
Lands Lane
Queens Arcade
Thorntons Arcade
Briggate
Country Arcade
Victoria Quarter
John Lewis
Trinity shopping centre
Trinity Kitchen

England 2018: Tour of the British City Leeds in West Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom!
Enjoy a day life in the British city Leeds for a 2018 tour beginning with a normal but busy Friday night! Then as the sunsets, the evening lights light up. People go to the theater, drink in pubs with their friends or go to a nightclub to dance. This is the end of the day but also a beginning of the night for the evening crawlers of Leeds. Then time goes backwards and we travel to the Leeds dock, which is by the River Aire in central Leeds. It has large residential population in waterside apartments and restaurants. Then we go across the campus of University of Leeds, we can see the white Parkinson building which is a landmark of Leeds. Then it’s the town hall and Millennium Square which are landmarks of Leeds as well. People in Leeds like to enjoy the sunshine at Hyde park! It’s also a nice place for people who love skateboarding and basketball. As we all know, English people love football (or soccer) and we can see how crazy they are when then win a world cup football match in this video. This is actually the game where they beat Panama 6-1 in the 2018 World Cup. There’s people cheering, waving flags and parading around the streets. Then it's time for the sunrise again, and lights light up again and people go out in the evening yet again. It’s a cycle but this is life in Leeds.
Thank you very much for watching and we hope you enjoy it! Video footage and editing by Jaya Chen at I executive produced the video and composed the music for it as seen at
Love,
