OLD JEWISH QUARTER LOVELY 18TH CENTURY STREETS USED IN FILMS FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF JACK THE RIPPER VIBRANT MARKETS AND BOUTIQUE SHOPS
“We are all immigrants or descended from immigrants – it just depends how far back you look.”
London’s East End has always been a melting pot of different cultures and your private guide will bring to life the rich heritage they have left behind. The buildings, including some of London’s most beautiful 18th century houses, bear the marks of previous and current occupants. One of them has the distinction of having been a church, a synagogue and a mosque!
The courtyards and alleyways that Jack the Ripper once prowled are now home to some of London’s most leading edge young designers, musicians and contemporary artists. But all communities leave their traces behind; and evidence of Spitalfields’ Jewish and radical past are still to be found among the hip coffee houses, boutiques and award winning curry houses of this intriguing quarter.
