In London, a tour of the Beatles' locations

To mark the Beatles' 50th anniversary, the British capital is organizing a series of themed events and tours, from Abbey Road to Madame Tussauds

Have passed 50 years from the famous photo of Beatles that intersect Abbey Road, image used for the cover of one of their famous albums and taken by photographer Iain McMillian. HE Fab Four, originally from Liverpool, soon landed in London and many of the most important moments of their careers took place in the City.

Here are the Beatles places the most significant ones that connect with the life, activities and works of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr until 1970, the year that marks the end of their career as a musical group.

Abbey Road is the street in London where the Abbey Road studios are located, where the Beatles recorded albums throughout their career.

But there are many places in London frequented by Ringo, George, John and Paul that pay tribute to The rock band most famous in the world. This is what they are.

Abbey Road
If you're a Beatles fan (or even if you're not) you can't help but cross the most famous street in the world, in St John's Wood, where, in the company of friends, you can take a photograph replicating the cover of the best-known album. Then stop at Beatles Cafe en Finchley Road, a stone's throw from Abbey Road. Metropolitan: San Juan Forest.

Beatles tour
Beatles experts, including Beatles Coffee Shop owner Richard Porter, regularly organize tours of London venues linked to the band. There are different types of tours to choose from, to explore on foot or with a private driver. We visited the recording studios (Abbey Road Studios) where, from 1962 to 1969, the Beatles recorded about 90% of their LPs, the set of the film “Let It Be – A Day with the Beatles” and the St. John's wooden church, the church where some of them got married. Metropolitan: San Juan Forest.

Madame Tussauds
If you want to meet all four of them "in person", you can find them at the wax museum on Marylebone Road. Don't leave without taking a photo with your favorite Beatle. Admission costs 34 pounds (about 37 euros) if purchased online. Metropolitan: Baker Street.

Saville Row
It is the street of the English tailors, the one where all the gentlemen of the City make their clothes. It is also the mecca of the Beatles' tour in London. The headquarters was located here apple records, the Fab Four's record label, where each had an office. On the roof of the building, in 1969, the Beatles gave a famous concert here, the band's last public concert. Metropolitan: Circo Piccadilly.

Beatles store
To end the trip on a high note, you need to get a souvenir. At the Beatles Store, at 231 Baker Street, you can find everything from mugs to T-shirts to the rock band's platinum albums (the “White Album” went 19 times platinum). Metropolitan: Baker Street.
