The Colours of Vilnius

Paul
Covent Garden is made up of a range of market areas featuring a range of stalls for jewellery lovers and bargain hunters alike! Well worth a browse, particularly on those wet afternoons and evenings as the area is all under cover. You can also while away an hour or two in one of the market's many cafes and bars watching the wide range of wonderful street entertainers - make sure you have some spare change to hand!
