Tourists come to Abbey Road and try to recreate the famous Beatles album cover

I would like to know more about the Abbey Road - its history, the current conditions of the road and the studio named by this road.   Feng, Nanjing

Abbey Road is a famous London road. The Beatles recorded most of their songs in the studios there.

They even had an album called Abbey Road with a very famous cover of the band walking across the zebra crossing in front of the studio.

In today’s Ask About Britain, Jo takes a trip to Abbey Road to talk to Beatles expert Richard Porter. He explains more about the history of Abbey Road, that famous zebra crossing and the condition of the road.
