Aldgate East Station, London

Aldgate East Station (GPS: 51.51526, -0.07222) is a station of the London Underground between Aldgate and Whitechapel, within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, in Travelcard Zone 1. It is served by the Hammersmith & City Line between the Liverpool Street Tube Station and Whitechapel Tube Station, and the District Line, between the Tower Hill Tube Station and the Whitechapel Tube Station.

The original Aldgate East Tube Station first opened on 6 October 1884 for the extension of the Metropolitan District Railway, the precursor of today's District Line. Due to the sharp curve of its railway line, the station was eventually rebuilt and opened on 31 October, 1938.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
