Leeds is the commercial capital of Yorkshire, and it is a busy industrial town, traditionally a centre of the textile trade. If you do go there be sure to see the Town Hall, it is said to be one of the best civic centres in the north. They have a city art gallery which shows a lot of nineteenth and twentieth century paintings and sculptures. It is best known for it's collection of English watercolours, prints and drawings. The adjoining City Museum has collections of geology, natural history, and archaeology including Egyptian Mummies, Greek and Roman marbles and local finds, they also have a very good display of old coins and medals.
