Tower Bridge was completed in 1894 to create a new road crossing in eastern London without blocking access for tall ships using the busy Pool of London. Its two monumental towers contain the machinery and supporting structures for twin bascules that can be raised to allow vessels to pass, while high-level walkways connect the towers above the river. The bridge combines Victorian engineering with a Gothic-inspired architectural treatment designed to harmonize with the nearby Tower of London, producing one of the most recognizable landmarks in the British capital. ---- Explore our playlists and videos on our YouTube channel: Quick City Guides: Don鈥檛 Waste a Second in These Cities https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9yWsVo_KfRT9_qCPsZJBbRW World Capitals https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9w5KyTcmYLdGH9JCZcmk2Da Iconic Landmarks https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9x4D_7xywTkwcA_dHnuu2hJ Modern Architecture & Skyscrapers https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9zJU2OPPUrFBWG8HRznldsQ Cultural Centers Around the World https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9zHU6H0lekigLgsPYbfQXnm Trains, Metros & Airports https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9xv8HFpPkc-85iXzvGvHUrp The Best Train Journeys Across Europe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7jj6_0ieHg&list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9yU87skZLhS9nGk_pWKF6jJ From the Airplane: Landings & Takeoffs https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJ8wKCP7fS9y-JUmWAwjD4WjroD11HRzh ---- Epic explores cities, architecture, transportation systems and urban landscapes around the world through real footage. #TowerBridge #London #England
