Zone 1/2 Tube station. This is where the 386,251 different branches of the District Line all join up. Avoid at peak times if possible; not only are the platforms packed with people, all trying to shove past you to get to a different end of the platform, but District Line trains often have to wait quite some time before they can enter the station, because it's a bottleneck due to trains from all branches are trying to get through. The platforms can also get quite unpleasant when there's something on at the Exhibition Centre; they'll be full of people who don't normally spend time in London.
