Things to do in London | England | United Kingdom

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become a world-famous symbol of London. As a result, it is sometimes confused with London Bridge, about 0.5 miles upstream. Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. It is the only one of the trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, as its northern landfall is in Tower Hamlets. (Wikipedia)

Traveler Notes

The Tower Bridge is probably the most notable bridge in London. With centuries of bloody history taking place at the Tower of London as well as being home to the Crown Jewels, the bridge is an engineering marvel and is one of London’s favorite icons.
