Day 3

Today we visit Leeds for some Christmas shopping, High Street names stake their claim beneath the iconic glass roof of Trinity Leeds, where 120 shops, bars and restaurants are abuzz seven days a week. Or there is the unique atmosphere of Grade I listed Kirkgate Market, where Michael Marks of Marks and Spencer first plied his trade. Designer devotees will find their fix in the splendour of Victoria Leeds, or across the bustling floors of Harvey Nichols. And not to forget Leeds' fierce independent spirit. Makers and creators abound, from the beautifully restored Corn Exchange, to the stunning Victorian arcades that tempt visitors away from busy Briggate. Christmas Market dates TBC.
