The graffiti tunnel under Waterloo. Fifteen minutes, not a gallery visit. Next is South Bank Centre — do not also stack Tate Modern the same day.
Analysis
Leake Street is one district, not every street on a list. The tunnel is open all day; the walls keep changing. One loop of the main street, then leave by Waterloo. Do not stitch the next district onto the same afternoon.

Season window
Weekends and weekdays are different crowds at Leake Street. In rain stay on the shopfront street. Long walks suit summer evenings.
Tips
- · Tickets: Free. Plan about 15 minutes.
- · The paint smell is strong; do not linger
- · Lanes at Leake Street are narrow. At night wear the bag in front, and do not follow a tout into a street with no shopfronts.
