This holiday market was so nice and definitely a bit more upscale and organized compared to others. My favorite park was the ski lodge bar that was smack dab in the center. They had a full bar and it felt like you were in a small ski town. It's fairly small where you could enjoy a complete walk within twenty to thirty minutes, but it was very aesthetically pleasing. Curious what it looks like outside the holiday season.

While trying to plan our trip to London and seeking out places we wanted to visit - Leadenhall…read morepopped up as a place to visit and it is absolutely worth it It is a covered market, and known for a couple of reasons, namely being one of the oldest markets in London and it has served as the inspiration for Diagon Alley as well as being featured in several movies! And for good reason, the quaintness and charm of the architecture is rather marvelous. There are plenty of eating, drinking and shopping options in the area and I appreciated the mix of tourists, locals and workers from the nearby financial district. But most of all the charm of the market makes this a must visit while in London!

We walked around and there were a lot of god food options. We took some pictures and saw the Harry Potter filming location and Wonka inspiration. We spent about an hour there as the market is small, but we all got different food from various places. There is no community seating so we brought food from one restaurant to another and no one seemed to care. I would recommend this for those who want to feel like they have been taken to another land.

The delicately feminine silk, knit and lace clothes are hung beautifully alongside a number of jewellery pieces and bags. My favourite touch however, are the handwritten price tags "one hundred and twenty five pounds", so simple but so unlike all other shops. As you can guess Pussy Willow is not cheap, but it is beautiful, as for the little dachshund curled up on a cushion, that is enough to make anyone's heart melt.

All you have to do is find the elevator and go to the highest level, and since the elevator is mostly glass, you can get amazing views of St. Paul's Cathedral just on the way up. When we went around 10am on a Saturday in late August, there was barely anyone there. Maybe it was a combination of it still being early and not that many people knowing about it. It's also only about a 3 minute walk from St. Paul's Cathedral which you can get amazing views of from the rooftop as well as other notable sites like The Shard and The London Eye. And since it's outside with low panes of glass, you can take unobstructed photos. You can even get amazing shots on the ground floor because of the contrast between old vs. modern architecture.

It feels more like an upmarket tourist souvenir shop than a champion of arts and crafts. Apparently everything except the jewellery is made from recycled materials, so this is the common threat.

Or so said the helpful check out person on the second floor. I would definitely recommend.
