Low Cost Car Hire in Leeds

Once the industrial heavyweight of the north, Leeds has had to transform itself over recent years as the decline of the textile industry precipitated a period of economic and social decline. However, although the industry that drove the city may now be long gone, Leeds is one of the fastest growing cities in the UK, with a large dynamic student population ensuring the city stays young at heart.

The city's regeneration programme has seen millions of pounds spent in redeveloping the Victorian city centre, removing generations of industrial grime and leaving an elegant and refined city centre of which Leeds can be rightly proud. Indeed the pedestrianised streets and splendid buildings and arcades fail to reflect the industrial base from which the city grew. Leeds city centre is also where most activities are to be found, from its nightlife to its vast array of shops, museums and art galleries. The noted West Yorkshire Playhouse, Opera North, and a triennial international piano competition considered to be among the world's top musical events are all to be found here. Meanwhile the City Art Gallery has the best collection of 20th century British art outside London, while Leeds Industrial Museum charts the city's historical roots. The ruins of Kirkstall Abbey, Harewood House which is one of the country's great Georgian estates, and St John's Church are among the attractions Leeds has to offer.
