london tube

just like hk's mtr, london also has an effective transport system, the tube. in fact, it should be the world's first such kind of system and somebody told me it's been there for at least 100 years. the nice thing is it's still doing a good job today by helping london people travelling from one place to another place. using them in a smart way helped me a lot during my previous visits to this great historical city.

i didnt take photos station by station. i only got 3 examples here but i think it is enough to illustrate how good the system is when u are a traveller in london.


chelsea is a famous football club in london. i am not its fans but still went there and had a look in 2006. the tube station is fulham broadway.




just like chep lap kok has airport express, london also has something similar, the heathrow express. paddington station is the tube station where we took the train to heathrow. unlike hk station, london airport express is on the ground even at its urban side terminal.


harrods is a famous department store. my ex-colleague told me even the queen likes to go there buying things. it can also be reached by the tube. (but i dont think the queen took this route in the past or planned to do so in the near future)

london is such a great city. many unforgotten memories, the tube is just one of them..........................................................................................................gunwai
