Advantages: Good new shopping mall

Disadvantages: Expensive

Leicester's Highcross, with the same name as the street near it, and having the shingle effect on the side and some other quite weird designs.

The main feature of the Highcross is John Lewis, but looking in there you can pay around £100 for a tie!!! yet its just a normal tie, but because its sold by John Lewis it seams to be so much more better, but why??

Also there is the Disney store, Debenahms and loads more the centre is build over the city centre and has the old shires bit and then more added on with some outside as well.

I went in there today and drove up to the car park (suprised my car made it up the steep slope) got my ticket going in, went around the city centre, and wasn't there long, as I live in the city so visit the city centre quite a bit, about 1/2 an hour, on the way back going to pay i had to pay for 2 hours parking at £2.50, which is quite a bit, the car park is also very easy to get lost in, and on the way out you get out and then go back under ground again. I think even the architect must still get lost in there.

The place is big and has some handy pc points where you use the touch screen to see the map of the shops and where to find things.

I think its a great place to go, but the shops aren't just any shops. They are all the higher class money taking shops.

It's worth a visit but I think it need some improvments, not everyone has millions.

Summary: Good shopping for people with millons.
