The view
The visit opens with an exhibition in the Art Deco Turbine Hall A, tracing the station's history from coal-fired power giant to restored landmark. You then step into a glass elevator that rises inside the hollow north-west chimney, the interior washed with moving coloured light.
At the top you emerge onto an open-air platform 109 m above the Thames with 360-degree views, from Westminster and the river to the West London skyline. It is the only one of the station's four white chimneys you can ride up.
How to get there
Battersea Power Station station (Northern line, Zone 1) sits directly beneath the development — you exit into the power station itself. Battersea Park and Queenstown Road rail are a short walk.
Height of the viewpoint
A viewing platform ~109 m up at the top of the north-west chimney of Battersea Power Station (the ‘109’ in the name).
