Camden Market has a string of different open-air shopping areas

Camden Market has a string of different open-air shopping areas, most of them in the locks along Regent's Canal. Fashion, antiques, music, arts, crafts and bric-a-brac fill a labyrinth of boutiques and stalls, where even local residents sometimes stumble upon whole unexplored areas. The Roundhouse, formerly a Victorian railway building, is establishing itself as one of London’s most innovative arts venues since reopening in 2006. In the south of the neighbourhood lies picturesque Regent's Park with its Zoo and wonderful Open Air Theatre.
