London Markets - Part 1

One of the things I enjoy most about London is the variety of markets.  They have markets for everything: antiques, food, clothing, books and even pets.  The one market I try to go to every time I'm in London is the Portobello Market.  The Portobello Market stretches for about two miles along Portobello Road.
While the Portobello Market is best know for its antiques, you can find just about anything amongst its numerous stalls.

Portobello Road runs through the Notting Hill section of West London.  Notting Hill is very picturesque and was the backdrop for the film of the same name.
Notting Hill Gate is the closest tube (subway) station to Portobello Market.
