Kensington makes up one of West London’s most lovely districts. It is part of Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, only 2.8 miles (4.5 km) west of Charing Cross. It is southwest of Hyde Park, bordered by Brompton and Knightsbridge, and northwest of Earl’s Court. To the west, Kensington is bordered by Hammersmith and Shepherd’s Bush. And to the north, Kensington is bordered by Notting Hill.

Kensington is a densely-populated residential area, consisting mainly of Victorian terraced houses. Kensington High Street is its commercial heart, featuring a wide range of upscale shops. It was declared London’s second best shopping street in February 2005.

South Kensington is Kensington’s second heart, with a great variety of small shops, fashionable boutiques and great pubs around the South Kensington tube station.
