Camden - London's cultural quarter - is bursting with vibrancy and contrasts for those who love both the traditional and the contemporary. One of London’s liveliest boroughs, it's the centre of the capital’s underground music scene with a plethora of seductively scuzzy venues. The locks along Regent’s Canal are the focus for some London’s most varied shopping, with fashion, antiques, music, arts, crafts and bric-a-brac filling this labyrinth of boutiques and markets.
In the south of the borough lies picturesque Regent's Park famed for its wonderful open air theatre and zoo. For more intellectual pursuits, there is the British Library, whose 150 million books, magazines CDs and DVDs are stored on 625km of shelves.
