    This is where the famous Abbey Road album cover of zebra crossing was shot, and where The Beatles recorded music. Find it at Abbey Rd, St. John's Wood, just a short walk from St. John's Wood station.

    Great studio very fortunate to have been inside. There is just stuff with historical importance lying around everywhere.

    Don't try to cross the road ... locals get fed up. Do hang around and enjoy watching tourists try to do it and the taxis that threaten to run them down.

    Probably London's most famous music heritage site. Made famous by the Beatles but plenty of other historic acts have recorded here too. Read more

    ‎"Because the wind is high it blows my mind, because the wind is high".Il 26 settembre 1969, usciva Abbey Road dei Beatles, a detta di molti, il loro miglior disco.

    If you take note of date and time that you're there you can go online and watch yourself in the CCTV security circuit at www.abbeyroad.com/crossing.

    You can always risk death by getting your photo taken on the zebra crossing but, more importantly, this is where sessions are recorded for Dan P Carter and the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show.

    Sign the wall right outside of the studio. Be sure to bring a sharpie or something though. I didn't know, and only had a pen on me at the time.

    When I lived in London in the 90's and earlier no one even went here. Now it's fun to watch irate drivers try to run tourists over on the crossing

    If you want to be a douchebag then please promote your own shitty band or your favorite sports team by writing their name on the wall.

    Have your picture taken on the crossing further away from the studios. Apparently that is the right one!

    La tienda de souvenirs es increíble, si lo que buscas es una foto, prepárate para esperar ya que es un lugar concurrido y con bastante tráfico para tomar un foto

    Me encantan los grafitis. Intenta tomar tu foto en la calle, suele ser muy complicado.
