An open-air party atmosphere still pervades in Covent Garden's Piazza. The 18th-century iron and glass former fruit and vegetable market has evolved gracefully and now houses a craft market, fashion boutiques and other upmarket stores which are a great place to pick up gifts. Stroll down Long Acre, Floral Street and cobbled Neal Street for good quality high street brands. Charing Cross Road is where to go if it's books you're after as there are shops specialising in everything from crime to medicine and law. Electrical goods can be found on Tottenham Court Road where wide boys in ties wheel and deal. Buy beautiful gifts at Covent Garden and wardrobe staples from the surrounding streets. Book worms will love the specialist book stores on Charing Cross Road and techy boffins will enjoy haggling for electrical goods on Tottenham Court Road.
