Leicestershire trip planner

Practically every village in Leicestershire boasts at least one iconic fish-and-chips shop. Though it has a rich industrial heritage, this area self-deprecatingly plays down its own attractions, causing it to remain less frequented by tourists than most of the rest of the country. The county comes alive on the weekends, when the locals pack the village pubs to enjoy singing, dancing, and a variety of games. The countryside is dotted with impressive historical remains, including Elizabethan castles and Roman ruins. The county’s biggest town, Leicester, offers a taste of Indian culture and cuisine, featuring several Hindu temples and curry houses.
