A
Europe’s busiest shopping street
London is a shopper’s paradise(天堂), and one of the best places to go is Oxford Street. Selfridges, one of the world’s first department stores, is here. There are at least four other major stores and Europe’s largest music shop. In December the Christmas lights are always switched on by a famous person.
Kids’ heaven
Nearby in Regent Street is Hamleys. This is the biggest toy store in the world, opened in 1881. There are seven floors, so kids can always find something they haven’t got.
Markets
You can’t leave London without visiting a market. One of the oldest is Borough market. Walk around and look at the fresh fish, bakeries, and fruit and vegetable sellers. You can also buy specialist food, like cheeses, pork pies and chutney. For antiques(古玩), jewellery or collector’s items go to Portobello Ro ad on a Saturday. You never know what you will find. If you like browsing(浏览)for jewellery and gifts, there is nothing better than Covent Garden market. There are lots of cafés here and always some kind of street entertainment.
Back in time
If you are in t he north of England, why not explore York’s picturesque medieval (中世纪的)quarter, known as The Shambles. The narrow streets are always filled with shoppers. The old wooden buildings are so close they almost touch each other.
