Extended data:

The area near the east of London, the capital of England, has always been regarded as a slum in history. Streets are narrow and houses are dense, mostly in the middle of19th century. In World War II, most of them were bombed and then rebuilt. It is a traditional industrial zone in London, with industries such as clothing, shoes, furniture, printing, cigarettes and food.

The East End of London is close to the pier, and the residents are mostly poor and immigrants from coolies. The famous "Jack the Ripper" once lived here. Later, as a group of young and cutting-edge designers moved their studios here, it quickly became a gathering place for internationally renowned artists. Hoxton, especially in the east, is a gathering place for artists and designers.
