Columbia Road Flower Market is a large and colorful flower market located on Columbia Street, in the East End of London.
The market offers a wide variety of flowerpots, seedlings, flowers, and more. While most sellers grow the flowers themselves, there are also florists who import goods from all over the world.
This is a lesser-known site of the city and doesn’t star on the average tourist map, but it is a unique site for both people-watching and feeling the atmosphere. So if this is your second or third time in London, this market will give you a glimpse of the real and less touristy London.
This is a stunning attraction that every tourist based in East London during the weekend should check out. Admission to the market is free, and the road to it passes through one of London’s stunning and authentic neighborhoods. Access by public transport to the market is convenient and fast, even from the city center.
The flower market is surrounded by restaurants and cafes, where you can relax after visiting the market and enjoy real English tea and hot pastries.
