点评:My oh my, did we enjoy our 90min visit to Leeds Corn Exchange!
1. The architecture; so grand, what an incredible space. I'm posted a few photos but really, this is a place best visited without seeing any photos of it beforehand. It's stunning.
2. The 30 or so little speciality indie stores are a delight. Craft foods, t-shirts, greetings cards, soaps, jewellry, clothing, gifts, souvenirs and more. Impossible to visit without ticking off pressies for friends, family and ourselves!
3. The excellent Food Cabaret cafe in the centre. Delicious teas, coffees, cakes, pastries etc. I visited 2 years ago and enjoyed a truly epic almond croissant here, but ths time they'd just sold out before we arrived.
Lovely staff, super value, plenty of seating.
Oh, and look out for the occasional historic sign or info board too. Fascinating. In fact, more signage on the history of this place would be a nice addition.
Good toilets. Only a short stroll from the main railway station and city centre.
A must-visit in this historic vibrant city.

1. 建筑风格:实在宏伟壮观,真是个不可思议的空间。我发了几张照片,但实际上,这个地方最好是在没看过任何相关照片的情况下亲自去参观。它真的美得令人惊叹。
2. 那里有30多家各具特色的独立小店,实在令人欣喜不已。手工艺品、T恤、贺卡、香皂、珠宝、服装、礼品、纪念品等等应有尽有。只要来这儿一趟,就一定能为朋友、家人以及自己买到心仪的礼物!
3.市中心的Food Cabaret咖啡馆真是棒极了。这里的茶、咖啡、蛋糕和糕点都美味可口。两年前我曾光顾过,品尝到了堪称绝佳的杏仁牛角包;不过这次我们去的时候,那种面包已经卖完了。
服务员很亲切,价格也很实惠,座位也充足。
哦,还有,留意一下偶尔会出现的历史标志牌或信息牌吧,非常有趣。其实,如果能增加更多介绍此地历史的标志牌就更好了。
卫生间也很干净。距离主要火车站和市中心仅几步之遥。
在这座历史悠久且充满活力的城市中,此地绝对值得一游。
