London Underground Graffiti Tunnel (Leake Street Tunnel)




Visited the London Underground Graffiti Tunnel in November 2014 at London, UK.

Found out this tunnel when I was swiping my instagram and saw Bgirl Eri sharing the post, I am amazed by the arts inside the tunnel (I am a graffiti lover). I search the location via google (google is everything, you can do any researches you want via google, thats what I did for all my trips).

The graffiti tunnel is located at Leake Street which is in a walking distance (5 mins) from Waterloo Station or less than a mile distance from South bank. Is easy to find, if you are unable to find it , you may just asked the security guard or someone at the shop at the station, they will guide you the way.


I was amazed when I reach the tunnel, it is full of graffiti, from the ground, to the wall, to the pillar and even the top. You can basically see all graffiti scattered fully in the tunnel, the best part, graffiti in this tunnel is legal.



It might be a little stinky inside the tunnel, but I don't really care. I am lucky to see some graffiti artist doing their arts on the wall. Here are some photos taken by Iphone. 








If you ever have the chances to drop by London, and you love graffiti, do not miss this place. =) There is still a lot of places in London are filled up with graffiti, all you have to do is a "treasure hunt". Hunting down some art work by Banksy is also a challenging and fun task to do while you are at London.
