Make the Most of Your Leicester Stay

Cultural heritage and modern innovation

Leicester reveals itself as a city where ancient Roman walls meet cutting-edge space science in England's East Midlands. The discovery of King Richard III's remains beneath a car park in 2012 transformed Leicester into a pilgrimage site for history enthusiasts, with the award-winning visitor center and the king's striking tomb at Leicester Cathedral offering profound connections to medieval England. The National Space Centre, housed in a distinctive 42-meter transparent tower, positions Leicester as the UK's Space City and provides a fascinating counterpoint to the Roman Jewry Wall, one of Britain's tallest surviving pieces of Roman masonry.

Multicultural character and dining

As one of Britain's most diverse communities, Leicester's distinctive atmosphere shines along the Golden Mile in Belgrave, where the largest Diwali celebration outside India illuminates the streets each autumn. This multicultural foundation extends to exceptional dining, from John's House, Leicestershire's only Michelin-starred restaurant, to outstanding South Asian vegetarian cuisine and global flavors along Narborough Road. The Cultural Quarter, centered around Rafael Viñoly's striking Curve Theatre, brings contemporary energy with independent venues and creative spaces.

Practical connections

Leicester's strategic position offers trains to London St Pancras in just over an hour and 24-hour Skylink bus service to East Midlands Airport in 30 minutes. The Georgian New Walk provides a car-free route between the city center and Victoria Park, while nearby Bradgate Park offers 830 acres of medieval deer park for exploration.
