The park is ideal for walks in good weather and has a beautiful natural landscape: hills, sprawling trees and small streams. It is also not uncommon to meet representatives of local fauna, who do not hesitate to approach the guests of the park.

Kirkstall Abbey
The history of this abbey dates back to the twelfth century. At that time, in the early Middle Ages, one of Europe's most important theological centers was located here, and many monks devoted their lives to writing religious and historical chronicles.
In the sixteenth century, by order of Henry VIII Tudor, the abbey was closed and its buildings were handed over to the hands of the counts of the Cardigans of the Brudnell family. However, its mighty walls have survived to this day and still amaze with their grandeur.

City Square
Before you go out to dinner, take a short walk through the town square. There's something unique about this place that's charming. Tall, modern buildings adjoin the miniature old buildings and modern art objects with historical statues. Despite this variety of stylistics, in general, the square looks very nice and harmonious.
