"Up in North #London is a neighbourhood which has become known as London's '#Jewishquarter'. Nearly half of people living in #GoldersGreen, in #Barnet, identify as being #Jewish.

Jewish people began to settle in Golders Green after the underground station was built there in 1907. There was an influx of #refugees in the 1930s, as people fled from #Nazi persecution.

The area has become known as London's 'Jewish quarter' as it is filled #Kosher food shops, restaurants and over 30 #synagogues where people come together to practice #Judaism. There are also 30 #JewishSchools in Golders Green, where younger generations learn #Hebrew, #Yiddish and other languages.

Many Jewish people keep kosher and to the laws of the #Shabbat. Kosher food, which sticks to strict preparation rules. can be difficult to find in some areas. But not in Golders Green, where there are around 50 kosher eateries under #rabbinical supervision."
