Shopping in LondonLondon has many large department stores, which

sell everything: shoes and shirts, paper and perfume, fur coats and frying pans. The most expensive department store is Harrods in Knightsbridge. You can buy almost everything in Harrods, and you know you’re getting the best. Twice a year, in January and July, Harrods has a sale. Some things are almost half price, and there are thousands of bargains. But on the first days of the sale the shop is very overcrowded. Some people stand and wait all the night so that they can be first in the shop when it opens.

The smartest and most expensive shops are in Knightsbridge, but more people come to Oxford Street, London’s most popular shopping centre. The street is more than a mile long. There are several big department stores in Oxford Street. You can buy what you like in the big shops, but the markets have a lot to offer too. There are several big street markets in London, and many small ones. Covent Garden market is open every day.
