the charming walk into to town, know as "new walk" is very picturesque tree lined promenade. The Lovely ornate street lamps guide the way and the old architecture is very romantic. Great thru the seasons too when the leaves change their colours. be sure to take a walk down new walk next time you have to head into town. There's also Leicester's main museum half way down and a fe bars & restaurants at the bottom.
