The Thames below Your Feet

If you’re thinking about visiting London soon, don’t miss the opportunity to view the Thames below your feet thanks to a new glass walkway with a stunning view from one of the most famous bridges in the world: the Tower Bridge in London.

Following in the footsteps of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the famous London Bridge has now also unveiled a glass walkway with views from 42 meters above the Thames. At 11 meters long and 1.8 meters wide, it allows visitors to enjoy a new perspective of the drawbridge and its traffic, including the city’s iconic red buses and numerous pedestrians, as well as the views of the River Thames and the boats that ply its waters daily.

Access to the gateway is included in the regular ticket price of visiting the popular bridge (10 euros /8 pounds), which is open from 9:30 am to 5 pm from October to March and 10 am to 5:30 pm from April to September. This new attraction is located on the west side of Tower Bridge, and a second walkway with identical dimensions is planned for the east side.

The opening of this gateway coincides with the 120th anniversary of the opening of the iconic bridge, which was designed by Horace Jones and John Wolfe Barry and receives more than 600,000 visitors annually.
