You're standing at Camden Market, right by the Regent's Canal in Camden Town. The lock nearby is officially called Hampstead Road Lock, but everyone just calls it Camden Lock. That's where the market's nickname comes from too. Have a look around. Stalls, old brick buildings, railway arches and food stands everywhere. Around 250,000 people wander through here every week, which makes it one of the most popular attractions in London.
