Kensington and Chelsea

The borough of Kensington and Chelsea is located in the inner-west of London. As the smallest borough in London and the second smallest district in England, with its 18 wards, this urban area is one of the most densely populated in the United Kingdom. It contains major museums and universities in Albertopolis (the nickname given to the area centred on Exhibition Road), major department stores, and embassies in Belgravia, Knightsbridge and Kensington Gardens. Each year it hosts the Notting Hill Carnival, Europe's largest carnival.
