LEICESTER CITY CENTRE TOUR - A walking tour of Leicester City Centre including the Christmas Lights, Leicester Market and Leicester Cathedral in a full virtual city tour.
Also watch NOTTINGHAM CHRISTMAS MARKET - • NOTTINGHAM CHRISTMAS M...
We have been asked many times to film Leicester City Centre so we picked up the Gimbal Walk TV cameras and headed there for a walk around the city to check out the streets, shops, the Christmas shopping and the tourist attractions in the fun and vibrant city!
Leicester is a city I've visited very briefly and always liked so it was great to have a proper look around and it was even better than I thought it would be with a great city centre, busy with shoppers and some great businesses there too!
Leicester is one of the oldest cities in England, with a history going back at least two millennia. There are some really great historic buildings in Leicester City Centre too to have a look at.
The remarkable King Richard III discovery may be Leicester's best-known story, but the city and county have many other best-kept secrets to share with visitors. Find out why Leicester is known as Space City, discover a wealth of intriguing royal connections, explore a forest of 9 million trees and see why the market towns paint a portrait of England.
Leicester is a unique city and a wonderful place to visit, with a superb range of visitor attractions and shopping that is second to none. It's a city that combines the finest English traditions with multicultural activities and the cosmopolitan buzz of city life.
Leicester City Centre is bursting with state-of-the-art, award-winning venues including Curve, Highcross Leicester and the National Space Centre, a fantastic calendar of events and festivals, renowned museums and galleries, a range of live music venues, areas of natural beauty and 2,000 years of heritage to discover.
The heart of Leicester City Centre is the shopping core. From the 800 year old market which is one of the biggest in Europe to the independent boutiques, arcades and eateries of The Lanes and the multitude of stores and restaurants in the Highcross shopping complex, Leicester’s sterling retail offers sprawls out in all directions from the iconic 146 year-old Clock Tower.
A modern city, rich in arts, culture, sports and heritage, Leicester offers something of interest for all ages. So start exploring today!
Discover independent shops and cafes in St Martin’s Square and The Lanes for the perfect Christmas gift. Enjoy a takeaway coffee from one of the superb coffee shops, or head for Highcross where you’ll find all your favourite high street stores and designer names.
If you love the buzz of a market, take a stroll around Leicester’s famous fruit and veg market. Leicester Market is the perfect place to find all your Christmas dinner essentials. The award-winning Food Hall is taking orders for stunning Hampers in time for the holidays, there's sausages and turkey galore, and artisan cheese-makers have got the perfect accompaniment for your Christmas Crackers! It’s all locally sourced, fresh, and a great way to support our local traders.

My wife went on a course for work in Leicester and I went with her. While she was attending that I went for a look around the city because we've never been before. I was totally blown away by it! It was at the same time king Richard's body had been found so there was a exciting buzz about the place! Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Starting to look a bit festive too, pretty at night I'm sure?! Like you I like to take pics or videos under trees. You captured the Christmas tree just fine! I especially like photographing Palm trees, where it's warm! ;) Thanks for my first introduction of Leicester. :)

It would have been nice to see Highcross (more modern shopping mall) and the Haymarket (art-deco shopping mall)as well as the Queen Street Quarter. Charles Street (which has some amazing architecture on it, both modern and older) is great too. Whilst outside the remit of the City centre, Leicester Train station with it's link to Thomas Cook would also have been nice. Something else, which is perhaps difficult to capture, is just how multicultural Leicester City is. It is one of the things that makes me love the City I grew up in. We all just do our "thing" without using prejudice against people that choose to do different things to us and even getting involved in some of their "things"!! Diwali (largest Diwali celebrations outside of India), Navratri, Caribbean Carnival (largest outside Brazil and London), Mela - to name a few! Oh, any petrolheads here? Leicester is surrounded by racetracks - Kirby Mallory (Mallory Park), Silverstone, Rockingham, Santa Pod, Daytona Milton Keynes and of course Donington Park. What an amazing City!

Leicester now is a hell hole. Full of charity shops, cheap tat shop, the market is nothing like it used to be, it once had a brilliant fish market, which now has gone and replaced with a new one which is rubbish. Few yrs back it used to have a fantastic Christmas market with stalls lining the streets, but now because they don't want to upset a certain community all that has been canceled. I've lived in Leicester all my life and now won't go in the city centre anymore. Go to Birmingham or Nottingham even Lincoln where they still celebrate Christmas with out the fear of upsetting anyone.

Christmas is still celebrated though? They had a lovely little event just outside the Showcase Cinema last Christmas with a ton of fake snow and stuff raining down from atop a building and some tunes. Some nice little stalls and stuff too. I've never seen anyone get mad at Christmasy stuff in the city centre last year when it happened.

Truth is many residents of Leicester don't want to go into that filthy scruffy looking town any more.. As for atmosphere.. Only an atmosphere of fear.. Pervades this city...

Not true. Go to Leicester during the busy times of the day or early evenings on a Friday and everyone looks relaxed and content with life. There's no fear or anything that you describe it just feels like a normal everyday city. The only negatives are the people on the streets begging for money(Some of which walk up to pedestrians) which the police dont seem to be doing much to tackle. Its usually the same suspects day after day.
