Spitalfields Market London E1

Spitalfields Market - London E1
Hello friends, welcome to Tea and Space with Rani!
Hope you are all well.
This week I had a work meeting in the City of London and after the meeting it was lunchtime so I went to the Spitalfields market. It has Shoreditch to one side and City of London on the other side.
It is one of London’s oldest markets, and is open seven-days-a-week. The market has a collection of independent stalls, showcasing incredible hand-crafted pieces that make every trip special and memorable. The stalls range from fashion, interiors and original artworks, each with a story to tell. As it was really cold I was really tempted by the woollen hats and gloves but then remembered all the ones sitting at home, so pulled myself away!
Spitalfields was relatively rural until the Great Fire of London. By 1666, traders had begun operating beyond the city gates - on the site where today’s market stands. The Truman’s Brewery opened in 1669 and in 1682 King Charles II granted John Balch a Royal Charter giving him the right to hold a market on Thursdays and Saturdays in or near Spital Square.
The market is also full of stalls selling fresh food from almost all corners of the world. I enjoyed an amazing cup of masala chai but forgot to take a picture.
How was your week, don’t forget to comment, share and subscribe!
Hope you enjoy the video! Thank you for watching! Bye!
