Bond Street

Bond Street

Since the 18th century, Bond Street has been London’s fashion shopping destination and has now become a haven for high-end fashion stores in the city. According to surveys, the most expensive commercial district in the world is New York’s Fifth Avenue in the United States, while the most expensive in Europe is Bond Street, located in central London.

The name Bond Street comes from a British landowner named Bond, who built this world-renowned shopping street. This short stretch of road is home to top-tier global fashion, jewelry, watch, and antique shops, some of which are flagship stores. For those looking to explore designer boutiques, there’s no better place than New Bond Street. The street exudes refined taste, with all internationally acclaimed designers setting up shop here, contributing to its very high rental prices — the highest in Europe and the second highest in the world. The shops on Bond Street are neatly arranged, featuring sleek, stylish designs, and their uniquely creative window displays attract many travelers to stop and admire.

Bond Street has also been mentioned in numerous novels. British author Jane Austen’s novel *Sense and Sensibility* and American novelist Virginia Woolf’s *Mrs Dalloway* both reference this globally popular fashion shopping street.
