1866年地图

利兹英语:Leeds 英语发音:/ˈldz/),英国英格兰西约克郡的大城市。依傍艾尔河(River Aire)旁的利兹,利兹市(City of Leeds)是行政中枢所在地。2011年预计有757,700人,使其成为英国第三大城市。

利兹的历史可以追溯到公元前五世纪的艾尔麦特王国(Elmet),这个古王国的领土上有一片名为“Loidis”的森林,这即是“Leeds”一名的起源。随后的数个世纪中统治者不断更迭,13世纪形成现在的格局。17和18世纪的利兹是英国的羊毛生产交易中心。工业革命时发展成为工业城,亚麻织造、铸铁、印刷等渐渐取代了羊毛织造业的地位。

Leeds /ldz/ is a city in West Yorkshire, England. Historically in Yorkshire's West Riding, the history of Leeds can be traced to the 5th century when the name referred to a wooded area of the Kingdom of Elmet. The name has been applied to many administrative entities over the centuries. It changed from being the appellation of a small manorial borough in the 13th century, through several incarnations, to being the name attached to the present metropolitan borough. In the 17th and 18th centuries Leeds became a major centre for the production and trading of wool. Then, during the Industrial Revolution, Leeds developed into a major mill town; wool was the dominant industry but flax, engineering, iron foundries, printing, and other industries were important. From being a compact market town in the valley of the River Aire in the 16th century Leeds expanded and absorbed the surrounding villages to become a populous urban centre by the mid-20th century. The main built-up area sub-division has a population of 474,632 (2011), and the City of Leeds metropolitan borough of which it is a part which has an estimated population of 757,700 (2011).
