Central London shopping centres and
stores are always full of tourists, who are rushing to spend fortune on
overpriced souvenirs and fighting for goods on seasonal sale. For not so
traditional view on shopping, here is our idea on how to make it fresh
and more interesting activity. Be a different type of shopper next time
you are in London and wonder around local markets which you can find in
almost every London area. Here is the list from Short Let London of the
most popular markets both among locals and tourists which you must
visit.
London Borough market is one of the
oldest in town, a real gem, offering fresh organic food from different
parts of the world and quality products that is so hard to find in the
supermarkets. For a unique experience and a feel of the punk scene visit
the famous Camden Town market. Even if you are not after informal metal
accessories, you can get some special souvenirs here, admire the local
art scene, sit in the café or walk along the picturesque Regents canal.
Portobello Road market has got an incredible collection of antique
decorations, jewellery and retro clothes. Roam around a Spitafields
Market and Spitafields Art Market, situated off the Liverpool Street,
for unique finds and inexpensive artworks of up-and coming artists, or
visit one of the many surrounding award-winning restaurants, bars or
independent shops. And to let yourself spend more on London markets, you
may save money by renting a cheap holiday flat or a short let
apartment. Short Let London can provide you with budget accommodation
and apartments for rent in London.
