Portobello Road was originally a track leading to a farm called Portobello Farm. On Portobello Road today you will find plenty of intriguing shops, including the many famous antique dealers. Portobello Market is really several markets in one, Saturday being the day when all are in full swing. You must head to this mile-long experience of hustle, haggle, colour and energy. Come here to buy your choice of antiques, arts and crafts, jewelry, fruit, veg and second-hand clothes. There are some talented and bizarre street performers to be spotted too.
Underground: Central Line
Bus Routes: 23, 27, 28, 31, 52
