Trip Planner : Europe / UK / England / Yorkshire / West Yorkshire / Leeds / Things to do in Leeds

Leeds

Nightlife · Room Escape Games · Parks

Although you may come just see its blend of Victorian and modern architecture, you'll find plenty more things to do in Leeds, from pub hopping to shopping. Given how difficult it can be to find a spot of green in the country's urban centers, Roundhay Park puts its contemporaries to shame and remains one of Europe's largest city parks. Those looking to experience the city's nightlife and live music venues should head to the area around Call Lane, a redeveloped industrial neighborhood. Before a pint, you can also dive into one of the city's escape rooms for a brief adventure.
