Camden Town is a place in the London Borough of Camden, England. It is an inner-city district located 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north north-west of Charing Cross, famous for its crowded market and as a centre for alternative lifestyles. The area is popular with students, including those from overseas.

The Regent's Canal runs through the north end of Camden Town; its 8.5 mile towpath, which passes through London Zoo, is a pleasant and popular walk in summer. Boat trips along the canal, from Camden Lock, are also interesting. Many of the handrails by the bridges show deep marks worn by the towropes by which horses pulled canal barges until the 1950s, and there are still underwater ramps to assist horses which have bolted and fallen in. One of the many canal bridges, Macclesfield bridge, is known as "Blow-up bridge": it was the site of London's largest pre-war explosion, where a barge laden with gunpowder blew up in 1874.

Camden Lock is a traditional manually-operated double canal lock operating between widely separated levels. A large complex of weekend street markets has mushroomed there since the 1970s. Not far away is Regent's Park, a large and pleasant park which was formerly Henry VIII's hunting chase. There are spectacular rose gardens in bloom in the spring, a boating lake, always-hungry ducks and geese, and several children's playgrounds. Conkers are plentiful in autumn. London Zoo is at the north of the park.

The Roundhouse is a railway roundhouse constructed in 1847 for the London and Birmingham Railway. Within 20 years it was too small to cope with current locomotives, and underwent various uses, until it was converted to a music venue in the 1960s; it is undergoing refurbishment until June 2006.

There are a great many shops, bars, restaurants and cafes. The area south of the tube station is typical of a London High Street; towards the north we find the markets and attractions typical of the area. There are a number of English language schools in the area.

Camden is well-known for its markets: these are of relatively recent date, except for Inverness Street Market, a small food market good for fruit and vegetables serving the local community, though now with more touristy stalls on weekends. Camden Lock Market proper started in a former timber yard in 1973, and is now surrounded by satellites: Buck Street Market, Stables Market, Camden Canal Market, and an indoor market in the Electric Ballroom. The markets are a major tourist attraction at weekends, selling inexpensive goods of all types including fashion, lifestyle, books, food, junk/antiques and bizarre goods; they and the surrounding shops are popular with young people, in particular those searching for "alternative" clothing. Stables Market also has a growing antiques and furniture trade. In recent years entertainment-related businesses such as a Virgin Megastore (on a site previously occupied by a Rumbelows electrical goods shop) and a Holiday Inn (in place of the Camden Recycling Centre) have moved into the area. Restaurants in particular have thrived, and represent an extensive range of world cuisine. Many restaurants are a little away from the markets: Camden High Street and its side streets, Parkway, Chalk Farm Road, Bayham Street. Camden Lock market has its own web site with maps, detailed transport information, and details of some shops and stalls.

Many bus lines serve the Camden Town area. Camden Town Underground station is close to the markets and other attractions; other stations are listed below. Black taxis ply for hire in the area, and there are minicab offices. Illegal taxis tout for business on the street, but are not recommended: they may ask excessive fares, and are often involved in sexual attacks on passengers. Camden Town Underground station was not designed for the volume of traffic it now attracts, is very crowded all weekend, and is closed to outbound passengers on Sunday afternoons, the peak time, for reasons of safety. London Underground has made many proposals to upgrade the station. In 2004 a proposal requiring the compulsory purchase and demolition of 'the Triangle'—land bordered by Kentish Town Road, Buck Street and Chalk Farm Road—was rejected by Camden Council after opposition from local people; of 229 letters, only 2 supported the scheme.
