Safe Area
by galat
Hi VT members !
I would like to know if the area around Bow Road tube station is safe to walk at night.
Thanks

Re: Safe Area
by puerto_lover
Yes it is safe just take usual precautions. East london has always been quite multi cultural with many immigrants settling from abroad so you will find a diverse and interesting local mix. The local Member of Parliament is Rushanara Ali whose roots are in Bangladesh. For your interest this is her web site: http://www.rushanaraali.org
There is always going to be some anti social behaviour and drugs related crime in big cities and London is no exception but the streets around Bow have some beautiful houses and is quite fashionable in places. It is only a short distance to Canary Wharf which houses the high spending financial guys and the 2012 London Olympics will be based not too far away at Stratford. If you like to try English beer go to the Youngs pub called Coburn Arms.

This is completely subjective but personally I don't think I'd feel terribly safe around Bow Street tube at night.
Try this for a more objective perspective:

I live about a mile and a half from there, so feel qualified to advise.
You should be all right on the main roads but I would not advise walking any backstreets. Definitely stay out of the nearby housing estates.
Hope this assists,

Travel Tips for London
The Moon
by huggy93
This may appear a little geeky but some of the nicest sights to see in London are at dusk and perhaps on a cold winters evening.
Some things that I see, can be seen anywhere in the world but they do a number of things for me. It makes me wonder if she can see what I can see, just in different time zones.
"Stare at your picture for hours, just wondering where you are, it's like the moon up above I wanna touch it, but I know it's just too far." The memories that I have created with friends that have either lived here or spent time here.
Zones
by ginte
All London is divided into 6 zones. Central London is in the 1st zone. I lived at the south-eastern part of London in the 3rd zone. The life is more calm here, not so noisy and surroundings are quite cozy.
If you have a chance and time discover more parts of London, not just a central one.
London's 350 meter long...
by Geoff_Wright
London's 350 meter long multi-million pound pedestrian bridge, which spans the River Thames between the City and St Paul's Cathedral on the North side, and the Tate Modern on the South Bank, is set to re-open by Easter. The Millennium Bridge was opened in a blaze of glory on 10th June, 2000, and closed to the public 24 hours later, due to excessive swaying, which left many pedestrians feeling sick.
After 18 months of tests and additional engineering work to fit dampers and struts, costing an additional 5 million pounds, the bridge was tested at the end of January 2002 by 2,000 Architects, Engineers and Council Staff, who made three return crossings of the bridge, and reported no ill effects. So here is another 'Must See' structure when you next visit London! And perhaps this time you will be able to use it too!
London

Here are some of the Christmas decorations they put up on Regent Street. They look cool during the night. Too bad they didn't blink on and off, but I guess that would've been distracting for the cars.
