The mixture may sound quite bizarre, but it actually works. It's also increasingly more of a tourist trap these days. Famous for its curry restaurants, vintage and designer clothes shops and vibrant nightlife venues such as 93 Feet East and The Vibe bar, the 1km-long stretch is populated by street vendors on the weekends pawning pretty much everything: second-home appliances to exotic world food, bikes and all sorts of bric-a-bracs. /system/photos/0046/8253/090510_-_Brick_Lane_02_thumb.JPG 2009-05-04T17:29:26+02:00 London Art & Culture 468253 James Cridland via Flickr /system/photos/0046/8253/090510_-_Brick_Lane_02.JPG 468263 ahisgett via Flickr /system/photos/0046/8263/090510_-_Brick_Lane_04.JPG
