The London IMAX was designed by Avery Associates and completed in May 1999. By far the largest screen in Britain it only has a seating capacity of just under 500. Despite being surrounded by traffic and has an underground line just four metres below, the London IMAX is insulated from the noise with anti vibration bearings. It's an ideal place to watch gripping action movies as well as 3D nature films like "To The Arctic." Take the Bakerloo Line, Jubilee Line or Northern Line to Waterloo Station and walk a short distance from there.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
