Camden son piercings, tatuajes y vestimentas góticas que se mezclan con pequeños puestos de comida internacional. Mexicana, tailandesa, turca... En este mercadillo es casi imposible no encontrar algo de nuestro gusto. El precio de las comidas es muy atractivo y va mejorando conforme avanza la mañana. Los precios pueden bajar hasta alcanzar la libra por ración.
Las fachadas de los comercios son objetivo de las cámaras de todos los turistas. Grandes murales y esculturas góticas se extienden por la calle principal de manera que es imposible no fijar la mirada en ellas. Y, en su interior, camisetas serigrafiadas y una gran variedad de productos en los que se muestra la bandera británica, se encuentran entre los más vendidos.
Respecto a Brick Lane, es la nueva zona de moda, el lugar perfecto para ir un domingo. Su estilo es mucho más alternativo y las antigüedades, la ropa vintage y los muebles de segunda mano son algunos de los productos por los que más se le conoce.
Así, como recomendación personal, estos dos mercadillos son un must en cualquier visita a Londres y, para cualquier adicta a la moda como yo, dos lugares en los que es obligatorio pasar unas horas rebuscando hasta encontrar un pequeño tesoro que llevar de vuelta a casa.
Shops or markets? It doesn't matter, London is the perfect city to go shopping.A lot of people find the charm of the English capital in its underground and alternative style, which is fully evident in markets like Camden Town or Brick Lane.
Camden is piercings, tattoos, gothic dressing that mix with the little stands of international food. Mexican, Thai, Turkish,... In this market is almost impossible not to find something that you love. Food price is very attractive and keeps improving as long as the morning advances. They can even reach the pound per ration.
The fronts of the shops are the main objective of all tourists' cameras. Big walls and gothic sculptures are all over the main street, making it impossible not to look at them. And inside them, silkscreened shirts and a wide variety of products with the British flag on them are sold.
According to Brick Lane, it is the new fashion zone, the perfect place to go on Sundays. Its style is way more alternative and the antiquities, vintage clothes and second-hand furniture are just some of their most popular products.
So, as a personal recommendation, these two markets are a must in any visit to London and, for any fashion addict like me, two places in which you must spend some hours looking for those little treasures to take home.
