While a Barcelona escalator near the Sagrada Família has gone viral on TikTok, Londoners don't have to travel for impressive escalator views.

The moving staircase has since become a popular spot among tourists for photos and has even been dubbed as ‘the most photogenic escalator in barcelona.’

However, those based in the UK capital don’t have to feel like they are missing out as the city has a few impressive escalator views of its own.

No, we’re not talking about the LED screens or ad posters that usually line escalators on the underground. 

Like the Barcelona one, London also has a few escalators that take you to street level while offering unique sights.
