Book the Armouries ticket
Entry to the Royal Armouries is free, but the museum asks visitors to book a ticket and suggests allowing two to three hours.
Walk between the sights
Granary Wharf, Leeds Bridge, the Calls, the Minster and Leeds Dock all lie along the river. The Royal Armouries gives its walk from the station as 20 to 25 minutes.
Holbeck is for looking
Temple Works, Marshall's Mill, Tower Works and the Round Foundry are historic buildings rather than museums, so plan to see them from the street.
Check the Minster's days
