This photograph shows the famous Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in
London. It was opened in 1894.
The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of
London.
Total length of the bridge is 244 metres. The height of the bridge is 65 metres.
The bridge consists of two towers tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways.
The bridge deck is freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians.
The bridge's twin towers, high-level walkways and Victorian engine rooms form part of the Tower Bridge
Exhibition, for which an admission charge is made.
Tower Bridge is still a busy crossing of the Thames: it is crossed by over 40,000 people (motorists,
cyclists and pedestrians) every day.
The bridge itself is interesting in that: Controlling the bridge is like controlling a ship: it has its own
captain and a crew of sailors who beat off bottles and stand on watch, like on a military ship.
