Where World Class Retail Meets
It has been many years now; since I have been to London to see the Queen! Nah, never seen her though I have visited the Castel many times as; it was just a 10-minute walk from my workplace.
No, today I'm not here to tell you the story of Buckingham Place but the Retail hub of Oxford Street!
Suddenly I thought I was somewhere in the Thor movie plot! Odin would be standing between those two pillars and looking to the Earth on his son Thor who would one day be crowned! Ha Ha...
Honestly, during my first visit when I got off at Marble Arch, I found as usual London view a huge white Historical Landmark just opposite right of the station.
At first, I got confused about which road would take me to my destination and soon I found street marks that led me to the famous Oxford Street.
The more I approach the more I am amazed, It starts with well known Primark store on my right and Holland & Barrett on my left.
The more I approached the more well-known wrold known brands appeared. Here I have found both modern and old fashioned buildings and both sides buildings are similar heights.
Soon M&S or Marks and Spencer was visible on my right where I had to wait for the road signal as the street straight down to Piccadilly Circus oh I should mention ZARA was just the opposite of M&S, amazing!
Just crossed the road I found Omega, ecco, Rolex, TAG Heuer and the Valentino, American Candy Land, Selfridges, and Adidas flagship store where I have got another road to cross.
Forear Austin Reed!
I should mention I found a few street food shops for coffee and hotdogs maybe. Here comes Boss, Dr.Martens, The Body Shop, Russell & Bromley, and what I missed I don't know! Soon I found myself opposite 'Bond Street station'.
House of Fraser would be found here, a huge one! I think John Lewis & Partners share the same building where another road had to cross, these roads are not very wide though. Here I found McDonald's and Clarks! As I approached Oxford Circus tube station appeared.
Mango, Top Shop another Zara, JD, Jessops, Next, Boots, United colors of Benetton and many more...
Ah I couldn't remember each of them! I came back to Bond Street as my goal was to end my journey at Piccadilly Circus where I would join for an Interview! Which was another way!!
Entering Regent Street I was pretty sure that It was a part of the Palace. The carving of the street and the buildings cannot be forgotten. From Oxford Circus to the Piccadilly Circus station is one of the best places to be for the retail lover.
I was 22, but people thought I was 16!
The 1.2 mile which is nearly 2 kilometers street is one of the busiest shopping streets of the United Kingdom which become one of Europe's busiest shopping destinations. This street starts near Marble Arch and ends at the intersection with Tottenham Court Road.
My workplace for a couple of years (2012-2014), so many memories. Cris, Kyle, Priscilla, Reebicca, Krish, and many more to recall !
I had a successful interview at Mountain Warehouse and worked there for a couple of years. I can cherish the memory till today. All the places near me were on the list of tour-loving people. Several lunches I have had at Trafalgar Square and on the green grass of St. James's Square!
I'm feeling nostalgic now.
Hello Beautiful People, Welcome to Mustavi's Blog! Hope you have enjoyed the post, Hive is a journey and I've been on the journey since the beginning.
