Lady in Maida Vale

One of the best things about living in London is that there are so many unique neighborhoods. From the funky markets in Notting Hill to the organic pubs in Angel, you don’t have to go far to feel like you have traveled a long distance. But while every London neighborhood is different, most of them are laid out in a similar fashion: a high street full of restaurants and shops surrounded by a residential area. However, there is one neighborhood in London where this rule doesn’t apply: Maida Vale.
