One of the largest towns in Yorkshire, Leeds is a mecca for shoppers. The shopping area is huge - it would take you several days to visit all the shops, and the market is enormous, with fresh food catering for every ethnic taste, and so many other stalls it's unbelievable.
The city itself does not always present an appearance as impressive as some others, but it has its nice points.

One of the many statues, this is Edward, The Black Prince in the City Square, a bronze by Thomas Brock. There are other statues of other worthy local people (Joseph Priestley, John Harrison, James Watt and Dr Walter Hook) and statues of eight nymphs, light standards by sculptor Alfred Drury.
