Tower Bridge is London's iconic Gothic Revival bascule bridge spanning the Thames, famous for its stunning architecture and panoramic views of the city skyline. Walk across the lower deck for free, or pay to explore the Tower Bridge Exhibition with its glass walkways and high-level views. The bridge is best visited at night when illuminated, and you may catch it lifting for passing boats—though crowds can be substantial at peak times.
