My story when in UK (Part 3)

13-14 October 2007 (Saturday & Sunday)

We do not plan to go far away from Mexborough, so we decided to go to city Leeds. On the way, we passed through Wakefield & there was a point of interest called Sandal Castle. Before reaching the place, we thought there was really a "castle" standing up there and awaiting us to explode. But actually, there was only some remaining wall left on the site.

Sandal Castle is a ruin on the edge of the city of Wakefield in West Yorkshire and overlooks the River Calder and Pugneys Country Park. We stopped and took our time to have a thorough walk over there.




Leeds is located on the River Aire in West Yorkshire, England. Picture below is the Leeds Town Hall.



Corn Exchange - Leeds' most treasured historic gem. This stunning Grade 1 listed building is of major architectural heritage to the City of Leeds and also considered to be one of Britain's finest Victorian structures.









Building's wall painted with colourful picture.













The Victoria Quarter, several existing arcades connected together by roofing the entirety of Queen Victoria Street with stained glass, is located off Briggate, Leeds' main shopping street.







Sunday, only go shopping at Meadowhall (you can visit http://www.meadowhall.co.uk/ for detail) located at Sheffield. Our colleagues said to us, Meadowhall Shopping Centre is the biggest shooping place in UK. When visited the place, it was nothing if compare to our Queensbay Mall & Mid-Valley Megamall. We didn't buy anything there.
