    This "The Notting Hill Bookshop," located at 13 Crescent, is a bookstore originally called "The Travel Bookshop" and was the inspiration for the bookshop in the movie "Notting Hill"—although the filming wasn't done here, but a few meters away, at 142 Portobello Road (the original film location now houses a souvenir shop)!

      The Notting Hill Bookstore, famous for the film of the same name starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, is a charming little paradise for book lovers and film fans. This bookstore on Portobello Road has retained its distinctive charm and attracts visitors with its cosy atmosphere and carefully curated selection of literature.

      In the iconic film, the shop played a central role as a meeting place between the characters, and even today the shop feels like a piece of film history. The shelves filled with travel guides, fiction, art books and children's literature offer something for every taste - and the lovingly decorated atmosphere lets you quickly immerse yourself in the world of the stories.

      A special fun fact: The Notting Hill Bookstore has inspired film fans around the world, so many visitors still visit the shop today to recreate the famous "bookstore scenario".

      Tip for your visit: Visit the Notting Hill Bookstore during a stroll through the colorful district and take your time to browse the shelves - you might discover your next favorite book or take home a souvenir from the film. And don't forget to take a photo in front of the door to experience a little piece of film history!
