Taxi Transfer from Heathrow to Camden Town (WC1)

If we were to talk about Europe’s busiest shopping street, Oxford Street, situated in Camden Town WC1, would be the one. Starting with 2011, about 300 shops were opened for business.

Oxford Street is known as the home of some of the most famous department stores in London, such as Selfridges, Topshop, House of Fraser, HMV, John Lewis and many other high-end department stores. Suffice it to say that Oxford Street is considered to be the biggest shopping street within Inner London, with many of the shops being opened from 10 until 18- 19.

Trivia

– Around 1729, the street came to be known as Oxford Road, whereas between the 12th century and 1782 it had several different names such as Worcester Road., Uxbridge Road, and Tyburn Road.

– Oxford Street became known for its shops starting with the 19th century.

– During the World War II, four important department stores were damaged: Selfridges, Peter Robinson, Bourne & Hollingsworth and John Lewis.

– Oxford Street is also famous for its beautiful Christmas Lights. Each year, on Christmas, the street is festively decorated; a tradition that began 5 years after the neighbouring Regent Street started it. Due to economic recession, the tradition was discontinued in 1976 and 1977, but was resumed in 1978.

– Another tradition is that in the mid- to late-November, a celebrity turns on the lights. Last year, in 2012, it was Robbie Williams’s turn to continue the tradition.
