Districts with that classic London atmosphere
London captivates its visitors with its incredibly varied atmosphere from one district to the next.
Amongst its many districts, Notting Hill is one of the most famous. This part of London has kept a warm village atmosphere, appreciated by Londoners and tourists alike. On Saturdays this is where you will find the Portobello Road flea market. This busy market is a must for those on the look-out for rare antiques and collectors’ items.
Covent Garden, on the eastern fringes of the West End, offers a welcoming atmosphere that invites visitors to wander through its streets. Well-known for its market building, a former fruit and vegetable market, Covent Garden is also home to around a dozen theatres.
Another district with plenty of character is Camden Town. The “underground” atmosphere of the area is really worth the trip. You will find a wide variety of clothes shops and boutiques, all with a colourful and eccentric style. Make the most of your visit to discover Camden Market, which has plenty of souvenirs on offer for every taste.
And whether for business or simply out of curiosity, every visitor should take a stroll through the world-famous City of London. In this historical heart of the city, you can brush shoulders with businessmen and visit Saint Paul’s Cathedral.
