Winner of the 2000 Sky Best Building Award, situated in Zone 1, in between two bustling London termini, with an Out of Station Interchange with a third, Southwark Station is seriously impressive.
Outside of the regular service patterns, which are frequent and fast in and of themselves, the architecture is remarkable.
Enclosures in an open space masquerading as escalators provide perfect opportunity to bombard passengers with advertising a la Oxford Circus. But not here. Fantastic station.

The River Thames, is a river that flows through southern England including London. At 215 miles, it is the longest river entirely in England and the second longest in the United Kingdom, after the River Severn. It flows through Oxford, Reading, Henley-on-Thames and Windsor.

This is arguably the prettiest London Underground station in London. Designed by Sir Richard MacCormac of MJP Architects - It was opened on 20 November 1999 as part of the Jubilee Line Extension, it also has access to Waterloo East.
Trains from this station go to Stratford, Canary Wharf, Greenwich, Westminster, Waterloo, Green Park, Baker Street and onward north to Stanmore. The station staff are helpful and friendly and the station is fully accessible.

This place is what I think the future looks like. It's big, beautiful,clean, and quiet. Importantly, there are also trains here. It was never crowded on any of the times I visited, and feels very spacious.

A very nice station. I like a very modernist style. it looks very modern and can even be an interesting si-fi movie set. In addition, there are a lot of nice streets around the station where you will find a lot of nice pubs and restaurants. Overall, it's a nice neighborhood where there are many attractive tourist places in the area.

The station is 5 years ahead from most of other underground stations. Big building, nice and clean & wide galleries
This is how some of the other stations should be renovated on Jubilee line.
Lods of entrance and exit doors, lods of stairs (it actually can be quite problematic if lifts are not working and u need step free access and quite a few stairs).

I love this station, the modernist architecture fitting with the jubilee line theme. One of my favourites on the underground
