Leicester has an array of festivals; Diwali, Caribbean carnival and the most established comedy festival in England. Students make up 10% of the term time population so the pubs, bars, restaurants and shops offer a wide range of student friendly incentives.

In return for those looking for a place to relax and enjoy nature, you can find several parks in the around area, being Abbey Park the most famous in the city.
Walking on Leicester's Little India Street: Belgrave Road & Melton Road, (on a hot summer's day).
This is a walk on a street known as the Golden Mile where the stretch of the High Street recorded in this video there are many, many south Indian cafe type restaurants, eateries, spice & grocery shops.
Well worth seeking out is a wonderful Vegetarian restaurant called Chai Pani .........we especially recommend their Tandoori Sizzler & all their portion sizes are quite large.
Many congratulations to Leicester City football club on being crowned Premier League champions after Tottenham failed to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge yesterday (2nd May 2016).
(Following is still in draft:
This area was settled by many Gujarati Indians in the 1970's arriving over here from Africa due to being told to leave the country by the then dictator Idi Amin. Many of the people fleeing were businessmen back in places like Kampala, Mombasa & Uganda; so it was natural that when they arrived here in the UK that they would start some form of business).

National Trust Calke Abbey - HumanKind - University of Leicester
le.ac.uk
HumanKind is a research-led collaboration between the National Trust and the Research Centre for Museums and Galleries (RCMG) at the University of Leicester which explores the unique role that culture and heritage can play in tackling social isolation and loneliness.
HumanKind has revealed how cultural organisations such as museums and historic houses are uniquely placed to help make a difference to those who are lonely or socially isolated. From the very first ‘welcome’, they can model forms of human interaction that are required in the fight against loneliness. Through their interpretation and displays, they can open up thoughtful reflection on the world in which we live and the ways in which many people are struggling to build relationships and find meaning.
The project has created bold new interpretation at the National Trust’s Calke Abbey (2019-20) which tackles the stigma associated with loneliness, prompts reflection and debate on the contemporary issue and invites all of us to make a difference through small, everyday acts of kindness.
