Yorkshire Sculpture Park (31 Jan 10)

Went to Yorkshire Scuplture Park about 3 weeks ago. It was my first visit to this place though I have been staying in Leeds for more than 3 years. I remember it was a great sunny Sunday and that was the first nicest weekend ever along this winter.

Yorkshire Sculpture Park is located at Wakefield, a small town not far from Leeds. It's about 30 minutes drive between Leeds and Wakefield. This placed has the history of 200 years, with the objective to exhibit and display all kinds of landscape arts and serves as a ground of pleasure. 60 sculptures are placed at this 500 acres land. Although I do not know anything about modern arts, I still enjoy hiking and walking around this place with hubby. This place is not just merely about arts exhibition, the beautiful landscape itself is the master piece of everything.

We walk around the area, from the Centre to the sculpture park, across the farm, into the woods, then back to the Centre. It was roughly a 5km walk. We had a great time there and we planned to come back again in the near future.
