Alongside Westminster and Big Ben, Tower Bridge is arguably the most iconic landmark in London. In the 19th century it was evident a new easterly bridge was necessary to to ease traffic across the busy Thames, but a traditional bridge at street level was not advantageous as it would have cut off access by ships to the port facilities in the Pool of London.
The upper walkway and lifting draw bridge were therefore integral to the design to maintain both pedestrian and river traffic. The bridge was completed in 1894 where it has stood ever since as a proud symbol of London. But where is the best place to shoot the Tower Bridge? I’ve made a custom map of all the best places.
So, what do you think is the best place to shoot the Tower Bridge? Anything you think we have left off our list?
