Leeds is a very underrated city, many people only hear of london, manchester and birmingham but leeds is actually the 3rd largest stand alone city in england, it just does not get as much coverage although with ch4 headquarters in the city now as well as new government departments in the city this should change. It has such a great city centre with beautiful old architecture spanning many streets together with a vast amount of new modern skyscraper tall buildings currently going up, its also one of the fastest growing city centres in europe with cranes up all over the city, numerous skyscraper buildings of over 40 floors to be constructed, currently leeds and manchester are the two most developing cities in england!

There’s been very heavy investment in Leeds over the years but they’ve managed to keep most of the old architecture intact. We got a good view of the Headrow and that’s changed a lot. Also bustling Briggate….Fantastic sophisticated looking arcades that show off the city’s beauty. And of course many streets are only walkways now, as they have been for a long time. Looking forward to returning to visit this great city, to hear the locals speak. I miss that. One of my old stomping grounds. Can’t wait.

I used to live in Leeds in the late 1980's early 1990s and so much has changed. I was lost in some parts especially now Brigate has been pedestrianised. The Market is a shadow of it's former self. Only one of my places of work still there The New Penny. Bananas and Rockshots are now a Cuban restaurant by the looks of it and the Golden lion Hotel seems to be no more too. Glad The Bridge pub is still going. Had some great nights and days in there. I may have to get a train ticket and go and see all the c changes for myself. Great video thoroughly enjoyed it.

The biggest problem with Leeds, and this film displays it well, is the number of pointless roadworks. They are forever digging up the streets. It causes both traffic mayhem and pedestrian inconvenience. Nevertheless, this is a great video and does to a large extent capture the 'feeling' of Leeds. I'm sure for many, many years to come, people will watch this and rekindle their memories. Thank you.

Hello Divyansh. Leeds City Centre is very beautiful. It was actually my first time in this city. I went to Liverpool city centre only once in 2014 or 15. My impression was: this is the L.A of England. It has very tall, modern buildings. I was fascinated by the women there: blond hair with pink lipstick and nicely dressed. I like Liverpool accent, you roll the R. And the people are very nice. English people are well-known to be welcoming & polite.

Hello Richard, I recorded the video on July 24th at 12:05 pm. I record the majority of my videos with iPhone 11 Pro and I do get sometimes funny looks but it's rare. I live in Birmingham so I mainly film there. Brummies are notoriously easy going so I film the city day & night with great ease. When I rewatched Leeds for editing purposes, I was surprised to see so many funny looks 😀 which I didn't notice when I was recording. It was my first time going to Leeds and I was too busy looking around for buildings to record, for streets to explore to notice people's faces. It wouldn't have phased me regardless because I am used to filming in public. But if it was my first time recording in public... I would have probably stopped mid-way. Lol 😄
