PUENTE DE LA TORRE Hace más de 100 años, los victorianos construyeron un puente que se ha convertido en uno de los monumentos más famosos de Londres. pasarelas de alto nivel se construyeron para permitir a la gente a cruzar el Támesis mientras que el puente fue levantado para que navegan los barcos de altura pasado. Hoy en día estas pasarelas actúan como la visualización de galerías, dando a los visitantes las vistas más espectaculares de un horizonte siempre cambiante Londres. Los visitantes entran exposición del Puente de la Torre a través de la torre norte. Luego son transportados por ascensor hasta la cima de la torre (47 metros sobre el Támesis) donde tienen una oportunidad única de ver el esqueleto de acero del puente desde dentro. Una película corta explica la historia y procedencia del puente y luego está la oportunidad de admirar las espectaculares vistas - de ambas pasarelas cubiertas. En la pasarela al este hay unas vistas fantásticas de la zona portuaria y del occidente Calzada se puede ver el nuevo edificio de GLA, la Torre de Londres, San Pablo, la ciudad, la piscina de Londres y el Big Ben y el London Eye en la distancia. quioscos computarizados interactivos y paneles gráficos explican la importancia de los puntos de vista a los visitantes, además de proporcionar más información sobre la historia y la construcción del puente. El material interactivo y paneles gráficos están escritos en siete lenguas y un bucle de audio para personas con problemas de audición también está en su lugar para el espectáculo de vídeo. Hay otra película para ver en la torre sur, antes de descender para el paseo a las salas de máquinas históricas, incluido en el precio del billete. Salas de Máquinas Victorianas Estos proporcionan una visión fascinante de la ingeniería finales del siglo 19. Instalado para la realización del puente de la torre en 1894, estos enormes, y muy bien cuidados, se utilizaron motores de carbón impulsada para alimentar a los miles de ascensores puente levadizo realizadas hasta 1976. A pesar de que los ascensores están operados por electricidad, las máquinas de vapor originales todavía están en lugar. Las salas de máquinas dan a los visitantes la oportunidad de experimentar con modelos de demostración de la tecnología detrás del puente. También hay algunas fotografías asombrosas del puente a lo largo de su ciclo de vida - incluyendo una imagen reveladora de la estructura de acero pesado del puente como el revestimiento de piedra se instaló sobre ella.

Highlights of the new Museum include: Fantastic New Cinema Within the walls of the new Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum is a remarkable cinema. The Cinema features a 200° screen that immerses the viewer into the world of The Championships by showing a film about the science of tennis. Filming took place during the 2005 Championships on Centre Court of Russia's Maria Sharapova against Spain's Nuria Llagostera Vives. Graham English Productions used a special panoramic rig that used 5 cameras at the same time, the result of which is a film that can be frozen and rotated around the field of action at any time. Using this technique, the film focuses on 20 different aspects of the match and showed viewers how players' bodies and equipment are affected during the course of a professional tennis match. McEnroe's Ghost Sighted at the New Museum Bringing together an old technique called 'Pepper's Ghost' with new projection and filming technology, the museum is able to create an exciting way to view a scene from Wimbledon's past. In a recreation of the 1980s Gentlemen's Dressing Room, a ghost-like image of John McEnroe appears and takes you through a tour of the normally off-limits area. McEnroe reminisces about his memories about the Dressing Room, including how he first met Jimmy Connors and how he would emotionally prepare himself for matches. The Whites of Wimbledon The fashions of Wimbledon continue to be a point of attention and significance to the story of tennis and the new Museum will house an extensive collection of Wimbledon attire. Everything from outfits worn in the 1880s to Rafeal Nadal's dri-fit 'pirate' trousers are on display. There is also an interactive exhibit where you can feel the weight difference between male and female clothing in 1884. Extraordinary New Technology Interactive touch screen consoles are evenly distributed throughout the Museum hallways. These information access points make up a part of the new and exiting technologies within the Museum. Other features are the 'Get a Grip' rotating wheel of rackets; 'The Reactor' game and an archive of great past Championship matches, all of which can be enjoyed by visitors of any age.
