    Nearly every kind of toy imaginable turns up here from all over the world and from all different time perods. It’s a fascinating exhibition of toy theatres, teddy bears, wax and china dolls, board games, optical toys, folk toys, nursery furniture, mechanical toys and doll’s houses.

Borough market
fresh & funky
saved by 25 users - Popularity

This is London's oldest fruit and vegetable market (and has been in London Bridge for 250 years). Besides a wholesale fruit and vegetable market one can also find fine foods, gourmet foods and all sorts of organic dishes. (French cheese and foigras, Spanish delicatessen, Polish sandwiches and a long etc). All delicious if only a bit expensive.

A great place to go for a nibble if you're walking along the south bank of the Thames.

    You can try fish & chips in many places in London but in Borough market its synonymous of quality and my recommendation is Fish kitchen.

A low budget hotel for people interested on going to London. Near the Hyde Park, and the Paddington Station this hotel offers good rooms at cheap price.

The people of the hotel are kind and the service is OK. Very clean. You can choose between shared or exclusive bathroom (Rooms with shared bathroom are cheaper)

Recommendation: Have an English breakfast, it's very good
