"his market place is a wonderful mix of shops and restaurants, known for its historic market, street performers, theatres and overall vibrant atmosphere. The central square, known as Covent Garden Piazza, is surrounded by shops and cafes, with space for outdoor seating. Together with several theatres, the Royal Opera House is located in Covent Garden. It’s one of the world’s leading opera houses, and hosts performances by the Opera and Royal Ballet. The history of the area is quite extensive but after the great fire of London, the entire square was devoted to selling of fresh fruit and vegetables and covent garden became London’s largest market. In 1748, a group of locals complained about the noise, stench and unauthorised selling of alcohol, and in 1828 it was allowed to build a proper market building, which still stands today. "
