London: Portobello Market, Notting Hill !!
Hi all,
Most of you out there love London, due to its diversity, tasty food, enterntainment and lets not forget .....shopping!!!
So recently I visited some friends for the weekend and discovered another more vintage and very cute side of London, which is a nice change to the vibrant and busy streets of central London.
Portobello Market in West London is one of the most famous street markets in the world. It is a popular destination for Londoners and tourists alike.
Portobello Road goes straight through the heart of Notting Hill, the trendy area of London made famous by the film Notting Hill. I tried to find the set locations: the blue door, the travel bookshop, the garden fence and so on but I have to admit it was not that easy!
I absolutely loved this place! Amazing food, from various countries ranging from paellas to hot dogs and great sweet/desert to cater for your sweet tooth (amazing pancakes and they are everywhere!!!! I was tempted to have more than one).
Here you can find antiques, amazing jewelerry and fresh fruit and vegetables, while taking a walk pasing your steps to jazz music played live, or fantastic songs from the 60-80's, which make you want to dance.
So If you find yourself in London, dont forget to visit! :)
Have a great day
