Portobello Road Market is one of the most famous markets in the world and is internationally recognised for its second-hand and antique sections. Statistically it features in the top ten rankings as the most visited tourist site in London. It is regularly the focus of press and media attention and mostly remembered from the Disney film Bed knobs and Broomsticks and more recently the film Notting Hill. Its history and culture span approximately 300 years of existence. Saturday morning is when you will find many dealers in vintage fountain pens and other writing equipment - but get there early - very early!
How to get there
The nearest underground station is Notting Hill Gate which is on the Central, Circle and District lines. Ladbroke Grove which is on the Hammersmith and City Line is also fairly near to Portobello Road. Buses 7, 12, 23, 27, 28, 31, 52, 70 & 328 all stop close to Portobello Road. visitors are advised to come by public transport as parking spaces are scarce especially on Saturdays
