Oxford Street, located in the City of Westminster, London, is one of the world's most renowned shopping streets. Stretching approximately 2000 meters from Marble Arch to St Giles's Circus, this street is an essential shopping destination with over 300 stores. It crosses iconic thoroughfares such as Park Lane, New Bond Street, and Regent Street, and becomes Bayswater Road west of Marble Arch.

With roots dating back to Roman times, Oxford Street has been an important route from Hampshire to Colchester. Over the centuries, it has been the scene of significant changes, from name changes to witnessing the final journey of prisoners to the gallows at Tyburn. It has established itself as the central hub of commerce in the heart of London, housing a variety of department stores and boutiques.

Among the most prominent establishments on Oxford Street are Selfridges, with its famous window display that has appeared in numerous films and television series, Marks & Spencer, HMV, John Lewis, and Zara. The street is spectacularly illuminated during the Christmas season, a tradition that began in 1959 and has continued (except for a brief pause in 1967 due to the recession), marking the start of the Christmas festivities in London. The lighting ceremony is an annual event that attracts visitors from all over the world.

The street has been mentioned and featured in a number of films and literary works, standing out as a symbol of London's vibrant urban life. It has also been the scene of several cultural and fashion events, demonstrating its relevance not only as a shopping center but also as a meeting point for large-scale celebrations and events.
