London has a lot of wonderful markets you can visit. Today, I will introduce three of them!
Hello everyone! Welcome to my second video! For those of you who are new to my video, I’m Maia and I’m currently studying at the University of Westminster in London. Today I want to introduce three markets you should visit in London.
The first one is the Borough Market. The Borough Market is known for its long history of 1,000 years! It is said to have existed since 1014. There are various food stalls, bakeries, and desserts to choose from and they also provide a selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, so you might want to pick up some groceries here. The Borough Market is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays.
The other two markets, Bricklane Sunday Market and the Spitalfield Market, are quite close by, so I recommend you visit them together. There is a wide variety of food in both markets so be sure to go with an empty stomach! As you can guess from the name, the Bricklane Market opens only on the weekends, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays. The Spitalfield Market is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. from Monday to Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays. Try to aim for a weekend to enjoy them both!
There are many famous markets in London aside from the ones I’ve introduced in today’s video, such as the Camden market or the Shepherd Market, so do check those out as well if you are visiting London!
