The city square is a good starting base to explore the historic city of Leeds.

It is a fully paved and pedestrian-only area, and the official start point of the long-distance White Rose Way hiking trail. In the square you'll discover a number of restaurants, cafés, and shops, as well as a set of statues that pay homage to local legends. These statues feature QR codes that allow you to delve deeper into the history.
