Ignore the great body of the Thames hurtling over your head and enjoy a ten minute walk from one bank to another. Entrances at Island Gardens DLR station and Greenwich pier .

Jordi Ollier-Howard

Scary and deserted at night, it's madness at rush hour. Bikes are f**g annoying!!

Tim Chatterton

Island Garden Cafe on the north entrance is worth a visit. Jamaican food , sandwiches and a good cup of tea .

HISTORY UK

This 370 metre long tunnel under the river opened in 1902, to ease congestion on the ferries that carried workers from south London to the bustling docks on the Isle of Dogs.

Every time I walk down here I always let myself lose in daydreaming. What if the walls were to break instantly? What are my chances to survive the flood? Pretty haunting if you ask me.

An old tunnel going under the Thames . Don't trust the no cycling signs. Everyone is cycling!

Great shortcut if you are going to Greenwich.

Thomas Pajor

Great place for a photo shoot when it’s not crowded !

Darren McFarlane

The acoustics here are incredible. Must be spooky at night

Greenwich Cyclists just met to discuss the debacle that is these tunnels . Greenwich Council are going to launch an inquiry (into themselves!) to see what went wrong...

George MacD

Quirky way of crossing the Thames .

Josef Dunne

This is pretty amazing. Get ready for a walk though!

Watch out for arrogant cyclists who don't think the rules apply to them, or just couldn't care less

Chandon Paul

Be careful of them crazy evil cyclists who try to kill you flying down here at 100+mph!

Graham Patterson

Great way to get across the river without getting wet

Betty Ludgate

Not ideal for cyclists ! (...I know, it's called a foot tunnel !)

Shane Boyle

Doesn’t smell too much of urine.

Daniel Demmel

Lifts finally work again!

Natalie Enokiantz

О! Получила удовольствие шагая по тоннелю и слушая музыку , а так де размышляя на тему того, как легко перейти реки-моря-океаны, оказывается, можно под землей.

Alexey Prikhodko

5 минут и в другой стороне реки . Достаточно чисто в тоннеле , но лифты ужасно грязные.

Kate P

Лифты для спуска в тоннель не всегда работают.
