A former timber market for ship builders, Camden Lock Market, renovated in the 1980's, is now a bustling young artists workshop centre. At the weekends, it opens as a market and sells a range of ethnic foods and spices as well as arts and crafts, vintage clothing, jewellery, mirrors, pictures and books.
I went to Camden market last week for the first time in ages and was pleasantly surprised to find some real bargains.I alway found Camden to be expensive but it seems the stall holders are responding to the credit crunch,without loosing their originality.Well worth a visit if you haven't been for a while.
I've always liked the Camden Lock Market, it's full of a whole bunch of differeny stuff, with new stuff showing up regularly.I recently took a friend of mine who was visiting London from Germany to Camden and she had such fun running around this market. It is full of bracelets, rings, and other jewellery, all of which she loves.Like I said, there's jewellery galore, but there's also a lot of very good art prints, generally of Camden itself, or celebrities from years gone by (think Freddie Mercury)There's also a stall of zip bag thingies.. Not sure what they're called, but it's basically a bag made out of one really long zip. Quite cool really.The downside of all this stuff is that it's all quite expensive. I suggest you try to haggle a bit for everything.And there are lots of other stuff, so go see for yourself!
Camden Lock Market is a great and original place for all who choose to venture.It can be a great experience and boost one's own energy, leaving a feeling of well being. The energy is high!
