Notting Hill
West London district
Notting Hill is a district in west London known for its colorful Victorian townhouses, the Portobello Road street market, and the annual Notting Hill Carnival, Europe's largest street festival celebrating Caribbean culture.
Once a working-class neighborhood with a significant West Indian immigrant population, it became increasingly affluent through gentrification in the late 20th century.
The area gained international recognition from the 1999 romantic comedy of the same name.
