Leake Street Arches
A 300-metre road tunnel under Waterloo station where painting the walls is allowed, so the murals change constantly. Older children and teens can watch artists at work and take photos. Some of the venues inside are bars, so it suits a daytime walk-through rather than an evening visit.
📍 London, London
