Explore Camden in one day.

12/06/2019

When you think of London, you might immediately think of the London Eye, Buckingham Palace, or Big Ben. This time, however, try something different and head northwest to the UK, dedicating a full day to Camden.

Camden is an inner-city district in the northwest of historic London and one of the 35 major centres listed on the London Planning Map. Just 24 hours isn't enough to experience everything Camden has to offer, but a well-planned itinerary can be very helpful in exploring this area.

10 AM: Start the day with a healthy snack.

After exiting Camden Town Tube station, take a stroll along the bustling Camden High Street to experience Camden's free-spirited, rebellious vibe. This spirit is evident in the colorful shop walls, the buzzing sounds from tattoo parlors, and the impressive performances of street artists. Before heading to Camden Market for shopping, refuel first. You can stop by Mildreds on Jamestown for a healthy breakfast with their delicious vegetarian options.

11:30 AM: Enjoy shopping at Camden Market.

After refueling, you can leisurely explore Camden Market. It's a labyrinth of shops and stalls scattered along the Regent Canal, under railway arches, or even inside old stables. You can find everything from fashion items to antiques and handcrafted gifts. Especially if you're a fan of electronic music, don't miss the three-story Cyberdog store, brimming with neon lights, where you can not only find unique outfits but also watch live performances.

2 PM: Enjoy world-class street food.

If you're tired and hungry after a few strolls around, don't worry, because the street food paradise in the western part of Camden Market will make you forget your fatigue with international-quality dishes like Oli Baba's famous Halloumi fries and Chin Chin Labs' unique liquid nitrogen ice cream. On sunny days, choose a spot along the Regent Canal to enjoy these delicious treats while watching the bustling crowds go by.

3 PM: A stroll along the Regent Canal.

After shopping and enjoying a delicious meal at the market, a short walk to Camden Lock is all you need to do to board a Waterbus London river bus and immerse yourself in the picturesque scenery around the Regent's Canal. Hourly buses will take you past charming local homes, past London Zoo – with the opportunity to visit the zoo at a discounted price – before stopping at Little Venice, a tranquil canal area. A round trip from Camden Lock to Little Venice takes less than two hours.

5 PM: Enjoying a beer at a legendary bar.

This time of day is also when many bars in Camden start to fill up, especially on weekends. Beer gardens are also an ideal summer option, such as the rooftop garden at Fest Camden located in the Stables Market. If you want to enjoy less fancy drinks, visit the legendary bar The Hawley Arms, a favorite of Amy Winehouse.

8 PM: Enjoy live music

Enjoying live music is the perfect way to end a day in Camden. This neighborhood has long been the city's premier live music hub, with artists like The Clash, Jimi Hendrix, and of course, Amy Winehouse all having performed here. You can have a sleepless night in Camden by immersing yourself in the soulful jazz and soul music at Jazz Café, enjoying spectacular performances at Roundhouse, or letting loose at KOKO.
