Best day for visit : Sunday
One of the most famous flea markets in London. Very colorful on sunday
mornings, chock-a-block
with turists, but BEWARE OF PICKPOCKETS. This
is not to scare you, the market is in a central area and you don't run
more risks than you would if you were in Oxford St., but the only report
of stolen money I heard during my long stay in London came from here. Just
don't leave your money in your rucksuck.
Portobello Road
U Notting Hill Gate or Ladbrooke Grove
Open : saturday other days only fruit and vegetables
market.
By no doubt the most famous in the world, as seen in Mary Poppins.
Mainly an antique market where you can get good bargains, but you have
to be an expert.
Honestly I have to say it disappointed me the first time; it's OK as
long as you don't expect too much from it.

It's not a market for tourists, but if you are looking for cheap clothes,
this is the place.
