Arriving at London Bridge

London Bridge Station can be found in Southwark, in south east London, on the banks of the River Thames. It’s outrageously close to Tate Modern, the UK’s premier national repository of modern and contemporary art, located inside Battersea Power Station and made world-famous by appearing on Pink Floyd’s 1977 album cover Animals.

London Bridge is a great location to begin your adventure in London because it’s strategically located between the south and the north of London. Plus, it has a tube station that can get you anywhere you want to be, serving the Jubilee and Northern lines.

What’s more, taxis are available from the taxi rank located outside the main entrance of the station, along Bermondsey Street at the intersection with Tooley Street, and also from St Thomas Street. This station also has a bus station situated right outside the main upper-level entrance of the station.

There’s so much to explore nearby. For instance, you can conveniently walk to Borough Market for a spot of shopping or walk to The Shard from London Bridge Station to sip on a cocktail and watch the views.
