Plan your visit to Waterloo, London
Explore a central London district with lots to offer, including world-renowned theaters, a subterranean arts venue and one of the tallest attractions in the city.
Waterloo may well be known as a transportation hub for its namesake railway and metro station, but this central London district has a lot more to offer. Visit Waterloo to discover galleries, museums, restaurants, theaters and some of the city's most iconic views across the River Thames.
Take a stroll along the South Bank, a long riverside walkway brimming with attractions and places to eat and drink. Be wowed by hundreds of underwater species at the SEA LIFE London Aquarium, which is housed in County Hall, a grand former civic building. Learn about London's gory and macabre past on the rides and in the actor-led shows of the London Dungeon.
Sit in a glass bubble that slowly climbs to a height of 443 feet (135 meters) when you ride on the London Eye, a huge Ferris wheel on the banks of the River Thames. When you come back down to earth, stop for refreshments in a café or restaurant while enjoying views across the river to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben.
For your evening's entertainment, watch a classic or modern play at the Old Vic or the Young Vic. Both theaters are located on The Cut, a leafy, tree-lined street that is also peppered with bars and restaurants. Stay here for a late-night bite to eat after a show or dine elsewhere. The district has plenty of pubs, bars and casual and fine dining options.
Other entertainment opportunities in the neighborhood include the Southbank Centre and BFI IMAX.
The Vaults is a subterranean multivenue, multidisciplinary art space located amid Victorian arches deep beneath the platform of Waterloo Station. Nine arches have been turned into theaters and galleries with an ever-changing roster of alternative art installations and immersive theatrical productions. This is an excellent place to see new and inventive theater and up and coming acts.
