The best fashion and gift stores England

It is in this shop that Alice Liddell, the little girl who inspired the character of Alice in Wonderland, daughter of the Dean of Christ Church College, came to buy her candy, right in front of the famous college. This very small shop is now known all over the world. It has become the address not to be missed for fans of Lewis Carroll's novel, full of memories. Figurines, books, engravings, toys on the theme of Alice will delight children and adults alike. Something to bring back funny memories.

Until 2011, this bookstore was twice as large and included The Travel Bookshop, a library for globe-trotters and travel enthusiasts. Unfortunately, the place closed, much to the dismay of many locals and writers who desperately tried to save it.

We are going there today mainly because this store inspired Hugh Grant's bookstore in the film Coup de Foudre à Notting Hill, with Julia Roberts. And we dream of falling in love there too.
