King's Road


King's Road, in Chelsea, can be associated with the swinging sixties and punk seventies. Although the area doesn't have any of its old character, it is still one of the best and most varied places for shopping. Especially the rich and beautiful like to shop in the one-off boutiques and designer stores.


Vivienne Westwood opened her shop, Sex, in 1971 on King's Road when punk was still big. Today, the name has changed into World's End, but it still sells Westwood's Anglomania range.


Go to the Chelsea Teapot if you're feeling like eating some cupcakes and having some tea. The decor makes the place even more welcoming, with its cute cups and pastel-coloured chairs.


Henry J Bean's Bar and Grill has one of the most famous beer gardens in London, and although the drinks weren't amazingly strong during happy hour(5 to 7pm),  the bar is still worth a visit.

If you get bored of the expensive shops down the road, go to the Saatchi Gallery instead.
