Aldgate East is a stop on both the District Line (color coded green on the tube map) and the Hammersmith and City Line (color coded pink).\u00a0 Upon leaving the tube station, head down Aldgate High St. until you reach Osborn St.\u00a0 Take a left on Osborn St. and it will eventually turn into Brick Lane.\u00a0 You will know you have officially arrived when you pass through the ornamental gateway.\u00a0 The gateway is simply an arch adorned with intricate, twisting ironwork and topped with red, decorative, onion shaped bulbs.<\/p>\n<p>IMAGES<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 310px\"
