Petticoat Lane is a popular street market just outside the financial district of the City of London, and it's not far from other famous markets, including the Brick Lane Market and Spitalfields. The market has a rich history. During the weekdays, the market has a smaller selection of stalls; its prime shopping day is Sunday. This street market has always specialised in items of clothing, and it's a colourful market. It's located at the north part of the City (the Gherkin pointed-skyscraper can be seen in the below photograph), and I visited it a few times during my lunch break. During the weekdays, there's a few food stalls set up to trade, and these can get popular in the summer months as workers far outnumber restaurants in the City.
The photographs below were taken in late March.
Crowds walk past the stalls in Petticoat Lane, and the Gherkin building can clearly be seen in the distance.
