When I read a few novels which were written by London or British-based authors, I stumbled across the place ‘Camden Market’ a few times. I wondered what it looked like so I headed down the streets of Camden Market and I was taken aback. In today’s article, I will be describing the area from my eyes:

What is Camden Market?

Camden Lock or Market is one of the world’s most famous markets and is a very popular place for its creativity, trading and craft workshops.

What did I like about Camden Market?

  • I loved that it had many stalls open, with the bustle of residents shopping for cheaper.
  • There were many food stalls available from different cuisines all around the world.
  • There were also many souvenirs available, especially if you are a new tourist in London.
  • Overall, it was also very diverse as there were stalls set up from different origins and filled with beautiful art near stalls.

What didn’t I like about Camden Market?

  • I didn’t like it how it was quite hard to find shops as I and my sister spent a long time looking for the stall we wanted to particularly visit.
  • Also, I didn’t know if there were any Halal stalls available as the stall we went to was not Halal.

Would I recommend Camden Market?

Yes, I would recommend it because it was much bigger than expected, it was very diverse and even if you don’t buy anything, it’s good to take a peek. But I struggled to find Halal eating places personally.

Open markets are one of the things that makes London special and popular. Even though I prefer to shop in malls, I still like visiting the markets and feeling the bustle of customers. The perfect example of finding this was Old Spitalfields Market. But would I spend my money there?

What is Old Spitalfields Market?

Old Spitalfields Market is a covered market in Spitalfields. It has open markets 

What did I like about Old Spitalfields Market?

  • I loved the hustle and bustle of the place as many people were shopping. This gave me feelings of being in a community.
  • It was also cheaper than malls so it is good for those who want to shop for cheaper.

What didn’t I like about Old Spitalfields Market?

  • I didn’t like how it was dark when I went and I was actually going around closing time.
  • Also, I went when many of the shops were closed so I didn’t get to see that much.

Would I recommend it?

No, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it because I went around closing time so I didn’t get to see everything (not the market’s fault). But it’s good for those who want to shop for cheaper.
