The Golden Mile is a name given to Belgrave Road, just north east of the city centre in Leicester, England. It is part of the ancient Roman Fosse Way and today is famed for its Indian restaurants, sari shops, jewellers, annual winter illuminations, and its internationally renowned annual Diwali celebrations, the largest of their kind outside of India.
