Edgware Road Useful Information
So, you’ve just arrived by taxi in W2 and found yourself in the vicinity of Edgware Road. What is there to do in the area? Well, the Edgware Road area has a large Middle-Eastern and North African Arabic population, and has become perhaps most famous for its many cafés and shisha bars, although the latter have been notably impacted by the smoking ban introduced in 2007. Nevertheless, an Edgware Road taxi driver will still know what you mean if you ask to be taken to “Little Cairo” or “Little Beirut” in order to sample this little pocket of Arabic culture in the middle of London.
Confusingly, Edgware Road has not one, but two separate London Underground stations, both called Edgware Road, but appearing on different lines. Of course, travelling by W2 taxi rather than tube easily avoids this confusion, although if asking a taxi in Edgware Road to take you to Edgware Road station, you should certainly make sure that you know whether you mean the station serving the Bakerloo line, or its namesake serving the District, Circle and Hammersmith and City lines!
Edgware Road extends quite some distance from Marble Arch through to its termination in Edgware, passing through three separate postcodes as it does so (W1, W2 and NW1 to be precise), and comes near to many interesting attractions and locations on its way, so if you are looking for something to do in the vicinity of Edgware Road, there are plenty of places to visit nearby.
From the part of the street passing nearest Marylebone, it is easy to reach the world-famous Madame Tussaud’s waxworks museum, founded in 1835 by Swiss sculptor Marie Tussaud (once appointed to the French royal court prior to the revolution at the end of the eighteenth century) as a place to display her lifelike wax sculptures of public figures and celebrities.
If you have the good fortune to be in the vicinity on a sunny day, it might well also be worth your time to visit Hyde Park, which is one of the largest areas of parkland in the city, and certainly a nice place to spend a hot afternoon relaxing if you are in London. It is also the site of various attractions of its own, such as its famous Speakers’ Corner, where you can listen to all manner of firebrands, agitators, spoken word performers and comedians voicing their thoughts. And if you need to cool down in the middle of summer, you could consider dipping your feet in the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain, before reaching for your phone to book a Tick Tock Taxi to take you somewhere nice to spend the evening as the sun goes down!
