Columbia Road in Bethnal Green, East London is most famous for it’s open air Sunday Flower Market, where the street comes alive with colourful blooms and beautiful plants along this view of traditional London life. The Victorian era architecture which has stood the test of time has been reinvented and is now home to glorious independent run vintage stores selling antique goods, handmade homewares and artisan foods. It’s a trip down memory lane with the facades and typography preserved alongside contemporary stores honouring an old school approach and simpler shop keeping times.
