Advantages: Great atmsphere

Disadvantages: Bit seedy

Camden Town is a fascinating place to visit especially on a Sunday when the famous market is in full swing. Located in the north London borough by the same nameCamden Town itself consists of one fairly long high street with the tube station located at the main cross roads. The tube station is on the Northern Line and is only a couple of stops away from Kings Cross.

Camden has a great bohemian quality about it and while the market does provide a bit of a touristy feel to it at times the area is also ome to some great venues to see a range of music from Jazz to punk and it has a lively bar scene as well.

It can also be a bit seedy as well with drug dealers hanging out by the tube and it seems to have a fairly high level of homeless people on the streets as well.

The market is excellent and is made up of a sprawling mixture of stalls and shops all around the canal area that passes through the borough, as well as fashion clothes and acccessories there are a huge array of eating places and you can eat food from all corners of the globe.

I love the buzz of Camden plus the fact that there is a lot of live music going on, I once bumped into Noel Fielding from the Mighty Boosh in Camden as well and a bloke rom the Blur whose name I forget, oh and Jarvis Cocker as well. What a name dropper I am.

Summary: Cool area
