- LEICESTER | A walking tour of Leicester City Centre
We take a look around the city centre of Leicester, England to see what it's like and what's there!
This is the second time we've been to this great city, with the time before being at Christmas last year.
The city of Leicester is most famous for its culturally diverse scene and world-class universities. Arts and culture thrive in the aptly named Cultural Quarter, where you can find dozens of galleries, museums, and theatres putting on a wide range of events.
In the busy City Centre, pedestrian streets lined with fashion and sportswear stores fan out from the landmark 1868 Clock Tower, and malls include Highcross, with a cinema and global eats. Near the medieval Cathedral, the King Richard III Visitor Centre highlights the 15th-century ruler’s life and the discovery of his grave in a nearby car park. The half-timbered, 1300s Guildhall hosts performances and has a museum.
Leicester has been named as one of the best cities in which to live and work in the UK, according to latest research. The 2015 Good Growth for Cities Index ranks Leicester in the top 10 of UK cities, highest in the Midlands and ahead of London and Cardiff.
Leicester is the most dangerous city in Leicestershire, and is among the top 10 most dangerous overall out of Leicestershire's 230 towns, villages, and cities. The overall crime rate in Leicester in 2021 was 112 crimes per 1,000 people.
With a population of more than 300,000, Leicester is the largest city in the East Midlands and the tenth largest in the country. People from Leicester are Leicesterians.
These are our 15 best areas to live in Leicester.
Oadby.
Evington.
Clarendon Park.
Narborough Road.
South Knighton.
Aylestone.
Little Stretton.
Knighton Fields.
Leicester has been named as one of the best places to be a student in the UK, according to the Student Living Index 2020. The index has been put together by NatWest, and it ranks Leicester in the top three student cities, just behind Manchester and Cambridge.
Leicester has a varied selection of attractions - from family favourites to historical gems and intergalactic delights, there’s bound to be something to keep you entertained in the city!
The 2012 unearthing and identification of the remains of King Richard III in a council car park has sparked a revival of interest in the city’s heritage, where there are numerous historical treasures waiting to be discovered - where else can you cover 2,000 years of history in a day? Check out the magnificent Roman Jewry wall, the King’s tomb in Leicester Cathedral and the out-of-this world National Space Centre for a journey through time - to infinity and beyond!
Art lovers will be pleased to learn that amongst the city’s impressive galleries is the largest collection of German Expressionist artwork in the UK. You can also find the family favourite dinosaur gallery at Leicester Museum & Art Gallery - complete with the 15 metre long Rutland dinosaur!
For those who like their culture a little louder, Leicester’s music and sports scenes will not disappoint. Kasabian are just one of the many musical talents who have honed their craft on Leicester’s buzzing live music scene. From the roar of the concert hall to the roars in the stands, Leicester is spoilt with top football, rugby, basketball and cricket sides.
And it’s not just the sporting theatre’s that are grabbing the headlines in this city. The ground-breaking architectural masterpiece Curve theatre is just one of the city's fantastic theatrical venues, attracting national shows as well as creating sell-out productions.

#leicester
I am Leicester born and bred. Lived there for the first 40 years of my life, now live in USA. Due to I’ll health I cannot fly back home anymore. It was beautiful to see my old city, especially the market, clock tower and guild hall. Thank you so much, I will treasure this.
Thank you - I will be filming more soon in Leicester as so much to see!
Well it ain’t like that now it has gone to the dogs and that is being polite.
I'm sorry to read that you can't come back it genuinely breaks my heart. i went to university in Middlesbrough for 5 years and i just had to come back to Leicester when i graduated. it's not the flashiest and we don't have a whole load of money to invest but i love this city, i was born and raised here and i'll always live here. The centre is slowly and legitimately expanding (out past St. Margaret's church now) the Football stadium expansion into an entertainment village will do wonder for our city long term. like i said it really saddens me to hear that you can't come back to your home.
@@liamfowell8661 it makes me very sad, too. I love my home town. So happy to hear you made it back, enjoy it, for me, too😊
I wish you can recovered soon.
I was a student in Leicester about 10 years ago now (time flies) and I wanted to remember the city because I haven't been back since I graduated. Thanks for the video!
You didn’t even go down that right to where cinema deluxe, pho, zizis, Nando’s, Turtle bay, Pizza express part man. The nicest part. Looks like tokyo
I didn’t have time this time
Am going back to film those places
Love Leicester!
I live in Leicester and it's great to see we are regenerating ourselves as a legitimate tourist destination now as well as a great university city. Thank you for sharing this video
You're welcome Marc. I have to say that Leicester is right up there as one of my favourite places to film now. I've only just scratched the surface.
I just don't understand all the negative comments from Leicester people that I get in the comments on my Leicester videos. They should be talking their fine city up not down!
Lefty after 55 years, became an absolute dump
Yes, everybody knows that locals LOVE hoards of tourists. Especially when they park in front of your house.
one of the cities where diversity really works. and we all live together. great city 🌎🤝
Absolutely!
Why I love Leicester! Moved here in 1993 and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. So much diversity and harmony.
Well said. People flow together as one.
Not true! Plenty of white racist people in this city
Yes, you came back! Good job Gimbal Walk TV!! Love your videos and pleased to see Leicester again on your channel!
couldn't resist!
Was gutted when I shot this one as I didn't have a lot of time, shot this route, and then when I was walking back to the car walked through some amazing places in the city centre that I just have to go back and film!
Really surprised how nice Leicester is.
I really like how you pan up to see all the old buildings, love old architecture !
Same!
I always believe that the magic is found in cities when you look up!
@@GimbalWalkTV I personally believe the magic in cities is when you look out :p ... where theres less grey and more green; the wild animals are varied and not just pigeons and spice addicts etc
Enjoyed the tour of Leicester. Very modern and pedestrianised from when I worked there many years ago. Good walking tour.
Many thanks
I love that there's so much footage of the old market on CZcams thanks to all the tour videos.❤
❤️❤️
Well, what a brilliant video - Thanks very much! I was born in Leicester but left in 2012. Going back for a visit this August 2023 and really looking forward to it. Really pleasantly surprised at how nice, clean and safe the city centre looks in this video. Great!
Thank you so much Steve!
Thanks for the cool video. I was born and raised in Leicester but left in 1979. The 60s and 70s were a blast!
I remember going to the guildhall museum back in 1996 when i was 19!
Thank you for the walking tour of our ancestral home. We had three mayors of Leicester in the family so seeing the Guildhall was especially nice.
Such a great city!
I'll be back soon to do a more indepth walk featuring more great Leicester landmarks
Born in Leicester, Saffron Lane, live in Melbourne Australia, Your walks bring back memories of my old friends and places.
I live in Leicester and it was nice to finally have an up to date video of what my city actually looks like that I could share with family and friends. Thank you so much for doing this.
Thanks for sharing!
Ha ha ha you are joking
A good video of LEICESTER | Walking tour of Leicester City Centre!.👌👌👌👌
❤️❤️❤️
I've not been back Leicester for about 7yrs now and the improvement is amazing.
Not been back for 50 years, having spent 4 years there. Hardly surprising that I don’t recognize the place.
@@adscri it is a sh*t hole now and I have lived here over 60 years.
Great upload! Thank you for this wonderful video! I hope you all are well! Have a great day! See you!
Studied in Leicester from 1993 to 1997. Lived just off Narborough Rd. Great city, great people. Memorable nights out in krystals, Mosquito Coastand Zoots. Made some good friends too, some in touch with still, others not, but hey ho, that’s the circle of life! Hopefully will come back up there for a visit soon.
I lived in Leicester as a student in the late seventies. I loved the city then but it has improved beyond all recognition. I absolutely love the pedestrian areas!
Great city, great video. Thanks.
Thank you so much for watching!
I was born in Leicester, raised in the county and went to the university so spent alot of time in the city. When I was 33, I moved to Scotland for work, and now live in the West Midlands but haven't been back to Leicester for quite some time ..thank you for sharing this. It has changed so much since I last visited ( about 8 years ago) ..was lovely to see.
Thank you Stacy - I'll be doing more in Leicester as there's so much to see!
@@GimbalWalkTV i look forward to seeing them :)
im amazed at how big it is its so huge and so much space. i may visit one day now ive seen the city
Love Guildhall lane thanks again for another great video : )
You’re welcome ❤️
Very clean environment indeed
Amazing city - growing rapidly
It is!
Fine city I love it
Thanks for the upload - great quality!
Thank you 👍❤️
I first looked at one of these videos just before Christmas 2021 and at the end, I was shocked that so much of the City had changed from the Leicester I grew up in. I left in 1972 and my only time back in the City was in 1999. But I loved this video, not so much of a shock this time. I hope you make more videos of the City and the outer suburbs, my childhood was around the area of the old Towers Hospital, Humberstone, Barkby, I worked in Sileby and my Grandparents lived in Sinope near to Coalville
I’m planning lots more in the city and surrounding area Ron so stay tuned and I will put them out shortly ❤️
Ron it is now an horrible place.I have lived here since the 50’s and it is not a nice place.
changed what' way?
@@X8ALPHAIt was 50 years this November since I left the UK, I went back in 1999 and the city center was much the same as when I left, but now it is all walkways and no traffic. So little in the city that I can recognise, apart from the Market, clock tower, Guildhall.
I was born and raised in Leicester and left in 1979. I have fond memories of old Leicester. Worked many factory jobs there back in the day
Good video. I've lived in Leicester for 20 years and I like living here. Some of the best bits weren't included in this video. I like New Walk, the newer part of the Highcross with all the new restaurants, the Lanes shopping where a lot of the independent shops are, the cultural quarter and theater. And out of the center the Stoneygate shops and the new and improved Fosse Park. Leicester also has quite a few unique museums and places of interest, plus plenty of little festivals and cultural events through the summer. It is a nice city to live in.
Such a great city!
I didn’t have long to film this one so am going back to film a full Indepth one so will Include your recommendations ❤️
The lanes are the best part! That’s where I Iove it! All small independent shops! Selling unique products!! Away from cooperations!!!!! That’s the part of Leicester I love!
thank you for this video. I have just come back from Leicester, I walked on exactly the same streets and saw the same things. Nice!
Glad you enjoyed it!
wow you have done a great job of making our city look clean, tidy and pleasant. how you've managed to get around most of the city and only passing 1 set of construction works is beyond me. i love my town centre i really do, but quite frankly your video flatters it.
Thanks Liam
I’ve been there today and it looks like this. 🤷♀️
I know I’m a Bit late but you’ve just got yourself a new sub, really good vid and enjoyed the positivity
Thanks Josh! Hope you’re well. Have a top week my friend 👍👍❤️
Leicester looking grand, great video thanks, I'm happy at any where you go filming ,joy to watch 👍
Thanks so much Alan!
Got some quite varied trips coming up this week so stay tuned!
New bus station looks well designed.also hollywood bowl is good for video games and caddyshacks as well outskirts are quite interesting.county is lovely city I prefer in 1980s but its not bad potential is there
Wow, Leicester looks so clean and smart, amazing 😁👍
❤️❤️
Well it is not now
To actually walk in it you see , rubbish everywhere, overcrowded , and far too many homeless, when I visited Nottingham and Loughborough recently, saw very few homeless compared with Leicester
Loved the video, very nice city.
Wow, Leicester is really nice and clean. Loads of good , and large stores. I didn't realize how big the town is. Thank you for the tour , I would like to visit Leicester . 👍
I’m going to do more from there
Don’t kid yourself it is now a dump.I lived here over 60 years I know what I am talking about.
@@sempereadem54eadem64 obviously not as the video shows how clean it is 🤣🤣
@@GimbalWalkTV You really are deluded.
take a phrase book in 94 languages you will need it
I went to Leicester today for the first time in 18 years. The city centre looks much improved. Looking forward to visiting again
Yes it’s getting better I think!
I was a graduate from Leicester university through distance learning and yet haven't been to Leicester city..hopefully for a near future i wish to visit..From your exciting video Leicester is quite a big city and the city is clean with many shops around...How come l didn't noticed any cars on the roads?
looking forward to being back in leicester next friday
this time with my sister
enjoyed the video tonight
rachel - queensland australia
Fantastic stuff - hope you have a great time!
I love to visit my home town unless I stay in B and B if they got any. I was born brought up in Coventry since 1968 thanks for showing what the city can do I noticed it gone really big take care
Thank you 🙏
A nice place to visit is the historic village of Carshalton near Sutton, it has a old high street, and the ponds, and is worth a walk around it, The Greyhound Pub by the ponds is a good lunch stop
Hi mate looks good Leicester never be great walk and vlog Cheers 💯😊
Iv lived here (Leicester) all my life and i only went into town the other week, and its crazy how much has changed! (been a few years since i last went in) its like a new city centre!
Agreed
To be fair I really love going to Leicester
I live in Leicester as well and was very much surprised how Granby street has changed. It was like a surprise as 70% of the shops are new to me. To think I go to town almost every week but hadn't noticed. Problem is I stick to the same streets all the time. I really need a day out just to explore my beloved city centre.
Ha ha
I left fifteen years of my life in Leicester, I love this city, maybe I will go back there one day... at least for a while❤
Great city
Great looking city. Love the hustle and bustle of a market and how a lot of the place is just pedestrianised thank you and keep on walking 🚶🏻👍❤️
Thank you! Will do!
I remember as a teenager wanting to visit Leicester and got laughed at and told i was sick to want to come!
I first visited in 1996 when i was 19 and enjoyed it especially the New Walk museum and the cathedral.
I live here for about 19 years now and love the city very good people
Agreed - but I'm getting some very negative posts from Leicester people about their City. I just dont' understand it
Ive lived in Leicester the past 2 years, moved from Birmingham. It's great, plenty of open space for the kids and the town centre is a very good balance of old and new. We'll be staying for the foreseeable future and couldn't be happier
Well said!
Ha ha
Do you find it safe overall as a city? I’m looking to relocate from london but struggling to find somewhere affordable, a little bit safe 😂
Safer than birmingham or London. Just don't live anywhere in Braunstone or the east side of Leicester.@@daniella309
Hi sir... i live in manchester with my 4 kids do u think leicester is good option to live their? If i want to move from manchester to leicester?
👏👏👏 A nice city.Thanks for the great
video.Greetings from Izmir-TURKEY. 👋
Thanks for watching!
Good old 70s, when there was Clark shoes,George's pub, LEWIS'S, a sky bridge connecting Haymarket with LEWIS'S. I used to catch buses on Humberstone Gate for Catherine Street. Remember Woolworth, Marks and Spa. There was Chalsea girl shop.We were able to drive round clock tower. Well that was down memory lane. Best wishes for All.
God bless England and God bless Leicester city. I had a great time there. I lived there in the year 2003 to 2007, and had a wonderful time. No wonder the people were great, it was too friendly and fabulous. Your video took me almost 20-years back to remind me, my friends, working place and vibrant society of Leicestershire. Once again God bless Leicestershire.
did you went to uni of leicester?
Yes bro
Leicester city . My home man love it
Well said - great city 👍
Born and bread in Leicester (Blaby) 1981 and it's crazy to see how much it changed. Being in the Armed Forces I have lived away a lot both in the Uk and abroad but always surprised to see changes every time i've come back. During the 1900s/2000s it was full of pubs and more so clubs and the night life was buzzing. Buses were packed on Thu, Fri and Sat with clubbers and the atmosphere was great, i mean there were always places you would find a scrap of course but you CHOOSE to go into those kinda places. Shopping was very good and was always busy with the shopping centre (which has changed it's name since i remember) and high street. However, over the years many of those pubs/bars i mentioned have closed and Leicester is a completely different "vibe" now. It's more "middle class" with pubs being replaced by wine bars and clubs being replaced by restaurants if you know what i mean. Good/bad way?.....Different. But it "looks" like the council have done a great job compared to some Cities/Towns that have completely fallen into slums . Reason why Leicester hasn't done that? 1) Only City in Leicestershire so it's more of a focal point for locals 2) Sits in the middle of England and is central to many Motoways roads (M1, M69 ect) 3) 2 great Universities that are well known and have their own dedicated areas in schooling 4) Digging up of Richard 3rd really was a turning point that sparked the transformation off and attracted tourists 5) VERY mulicultural that has had years and years to adapt and has changed the mindset 6) The council kept up with the times and seen the decline of shops so changed direction.
Lived here all my life and city centre was always heaving especially Saturdays when it was most people's day off for shopping . Then over the last few decades the town was crowded almost every day of the week so to see how few people wandering about in this video was quite a shock and can only put it down to the recent pandemic which has seen a changeover to online shopping. The impact on the shops must be considerable. Apart from that the city looks clean and surprisingly elegant - which has not always been my opinion! Great video tour.
I think the issue was there as far back as 10 years take away highcross and fosse Park this city will face a recession I hear they are both doing well let's be honest we have got through the worst now online is not for everyone it's hassle sending things back and shops do click and collect which at least brings people I think the people are not very friendly in city's that what puts them off just to many idiots it's allways been the same not feeling safe
@@markvarley2962 I think the high street has a future I'm sure if it's still here in five years some people are friendly here some not but that's society
@@markvarley2962 I'm going de mont for hall soon it's more safe in the week there's some dangerous people but I just avoid that's the best way no were 100% safe
Beautiful city country
Agreed
I went to University there 30 years ago, surprised how clean the streets are, only thing I remember is the clock tower and massive bus station. Oh and linkers stall in the market
Beautiful city, beautiful residence emezing restaurant's abd food , many many independent cafe's , clean but I'm little bit expensive to compered similar city around east Midlands and the North.
Totally agree
I left in 1988 and I hardly recognise it anymore. Alot of the big names seem missing and it was shocking how many market stalls were empty, it used to be heaving when I was a teenager here in the 1980s. Thank you.
You're welcome Corinne. I love that my videos stir up memories!
I stayed there for 2 years in 1981-3. The market still there (renovated), so too are WH Smith & M&S, the clock tower. John Lewis has moved I noticed, no longer at Humberstone Gate. Glad the streets have widened & pedestrianized. Leicester Polytechnic upgraded to De Montfort University
Yes i am a massive fan of traditional markets!
Me too!
Leicester must have had real good town planners and a proper run council, I like how many buildings have red bricks and clean well laid out brick streets
lol
My city. 💚
Such a friendly city! I love it!
Next time you visit Leicester! Please go to St Martins square and around the lanes!!!! That’s where you find more old fashioned stuff and unique places!
I will definitely do that
I’m new to Leicester so didn’t know they were there till I got home 🤣
My son was at Leicester university 20 years ago my it’s changed . Happy days
👍👍
My Local used to be the Corn Exchange in the Market Place. I was suprised of the change's to the city center when id been away for some time. They had pedestriansed the city center.
Yes - do you prefer pedestrianised?
@@GimbalWalkTV Yes its a lot better. It would be even better if they installed a Tram service.
I remember many years ago they had a Fenwicks in Leicester!
Greetings.. From Leicester 👋
Yes!
I love Leicester now - what a great city!
Lovely film. I like Leicester. You look up and see all the interesting architecture. I find it clean. I came in tonight for the first time in a few years. There was rubbish and a lot of potatoes over the ground outside McDonalds😣
Oh no!
It's a shame that you didn't show The Town Hall and gardens. You just saw a glimpse of it just before you walked into The Market Approach. Apart from that, it was a nice walkabout showing the Town Centre of the city I live in. Thank you.
It was a bit of a rushed one this as I didn't have long to shoot
I'm heading back - so will definitely take your advice for the next one!
Good tour my home town ( now in Canada) I like the pedestrian walkway
Hello sir, my name is Navpreet singh. I am from India. Im going to do master in leicester in dmu uni.. i just want to know how is this city? Like parttime jobs .. i have 1 year experience as a chef in india. I hope u will reply🤗

Very beautiful place I am moving to Leicester
Its' great isn't it
loved leicester my first visit will return
Yeah it’s nice 👍
Absolutely beautiful liester 👌👌💐💐
Please cover Mumbai City ( India )...👍👍👍
One day!
Leicester is changing all the time.
The Guildhall was originally Leicester’s Town Hall, before they built a new one on Horsefare Street. Were the Cattle Market was. The Cattle Market moved to Freeman’s Common. Leicester Cathedral is undergoing major restoration work. Including an archaeological dig on the East side, where hundreds of bodies have been discovered. They are being preserved to be repatriated later.
Amazing city
So nice and clean, my home town
It sure is
Itz quite nice up newwalk area good museum
Clarendon park is nice
❤ my city
👍👍👍
Very nice. Interesting that the entire financial district of the city is made car free, pedestrian only. This makes up for a lot of walking space and reduces congestion greatly. Maybe in Europe this is common, but I was curious how European old cities deal with traffic congestion and I got my answer. Thank you.
Thank you 🙏
My city. Wasn't expecting this. Try and catch the good side won't you lol
There is no good side!!!
What good side, it’s a dump
@@hooper-highlights-uk that’s your opinion. Also, what country do you live in?
@@amk4606 I have lived here over sixty years it is now a DUMP.
I am from Leicester to! Born in Leicester 50 years ago! It’s not so nice as this video looks!! Seeing a police van is the normal lol
Great video. I wasnt expecting it to look so nice. Can anyone tell me if Whitwick is a nice place to live?
Nice ,clean ,smiling city
Definitely 👍❤️
I enjoyed the walk down Gallowtree Gate until you came to the man playing the steel drum there was a woman on a mobility scooter that was me, even my husband recognised the cool bag I had with me on mt scooter.
Gok wan there's been quite a few famous actors in hollyoaks Tina Baker who famous and one of itv news readers is from Leicestershire as well mark Morrison who I did see once driving in a lovely merc churchgate area 1996
Great tour really appreciate it Thank You 😊 being a Leicesterian I'm proud to be, seeing the growth there is and all the rich history this beautiful and diverse City of Leicester has 🦋💫🍃
What a great city!
Dream on ha ha ha
@@sempereadem54eadem64 People always slate their home city or town wherever I go
Like the markets all that fruit n cafes..can't beat a fryup bacon eggs beans..Black pudding!
Yes to black pudding!
Great camera quality. I would do this type of thing. I have filmed and taken photos of buildings but would be worried about when there are people in the clips, how they may react and if you needed their permission.
Takes some getting used to
Also helps I’m six foot three and built like a tank 🤣
i love liechester sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much
never knew the clock tower was located here in LEICESTER CITY😯
💖👍
Holme's Chapel area!
I believe it is significantly cleaner because there is just less people going to city centre, in comparison to pre-covid. Everyone is at the Fosse Park shopping mall😉
Yes true
Its fairly busy on bank holidays and weekends during the day if you visit.
@@matthew90276 I have to say I really like Leicester. The last trip I made was fantastic and I've decided to come back for a few days to cover all the best bits that have been recommended!
actor Richard Armitage is from Leicester too
Can you walk through Nottingham, Newcastle and Exeter? Pls ^^
Have done Newcastle a couple of times (on my channel if you fancy a nosey!)
Will definitely be doing the others too
Make please film of the botanical gardens of Leicester and space center.
Thanks for a walk round my old town. Shame the shops are the same whatever the city. That's progress for you. Glad the Globe pub still there.
Great city
You should do 1 in Coventry to after all we are city of culture
I was going to this week but had to come home so had to postpone but I've got a couple planned there for sure!
@@GimbalWalkTV awesome the museum great to lots of history
Leicester is an underrated city
When I was a teenager I got laughed at when I said I fancied visiting Leicester!
Wasn’t expecting for someone to make a video about my city. Leicester isn’t really as well known as other places like London
I love Leicester!
It's only my second video there so still trying to find my way around
Am back soon to film all the bits I've missed so far!
@@GimbalWalkTV It is a great city. I honestly think it doesn’t get the attention that it deserves
idk how you managed it but you made Leicester look nice. I've lived here 27 years and I'm not a fan at all. Your opinions are refreshing :)
Thank you
People lose sight of their home towns and cities so it’s a comment I get often
Great video.....I want to visit this place, please tell me that Leicester is in London or outside London
Outside London - about two hours away
@@GimbalWalkTV Thank you so much, You are very Good person because there are many CZcamsrs who don't reply, but you did....I wish your channel may get success by getting million of followers
