I would say that the Spitalfields area (quite near Liverpool Street
Station) is particularly atmospheric unless it has been redeveloped
since I was last there.

When were you last there? The market itself was undergoing considerable
rebuilding when I was last there (about 3 years ago). Perhaps they've
finished now. Brick Lane nearby is an interesting place, in any event;
exit the Aldgate East tube at the lesser-used eastern end and take the
first left.

Spitalfields is a delightfully atmospheric part of London. The old
Huguenot houses around (say) Fournier Street is truly beautiful, while
Artillery Row is one of those bits of Victorian London which somehow
managed to get forgotten by the Luftwaffe and the post-war planners.
