Hace más de 100 años, los victorianos construyeron un puente que se ha convertido en uno de los monumentos más famosos de Londres. Se construyeron pasarelas en la planta superior para permitir que la gente cruzara el Támesis mientras se levantaba el puente para el paso de grandes barcos. En la actualidad, estas pasarelas se utilizan como lugar de observación, ofreciendo a los visitantes las vistas más espectaculares del skyline de Londres. Pasarelas y exposición: Los visitantes entran a la Exposición del Tower Bridge por la Torre Norte. Luego son trasladados en ascensor hasta la parte superior de la torre (47 metros sobre el Támesis) donde tienen la oportunidad única de ver la estructura de acero del puente des de su interior. Un cortometraje cuenta los orígenes e historia del puente y luego hay la posibilidad de contemplar vistas espectaculares desde ambas pasarelas cubiertas. Junto con vistas excepcionales del este de Londres, la pasarela cuenta con 20 reconocidos puentes que forman la popular exposición "Grandes puentes del mundo". En la pasarela este hay fantásticas vistas de los Docklands y desde la pasarela oeste se puede ver el nuevo edificio del ayuntamiento, la catedral de Saint Paul, la City, la Pool de Londres, el Big Ben y el London Eye en la distancia. Los kioscos interactivos y los paneles gráficos explican los detalles de las vistas a los visitantes, así como también ofrecen información sobre la historia y la construcción del puente. El material interactivo y los paneles gráficos están traducidos en siete idiomas y para el video también hay un audio en bucle para las personas con dificultades auditivas. En la Torre Sur hay otro video para ver antes de descender a las históricas salas de máquinas, que están incluidas en el precio de su entrada. Salas de máquinas victorianas: Estas ofrecen una interesante perspectiva de la ingeniería de finales del siglo XIX. Instaladas en la finalización del Tower Bridge en 1894, estos enormes motores impulsados por carbón se usaron para alimentar los miles de elevadores basculantes del puente hasta 1976. Aunque los elevadores ahora son impulsados por la electricidad, las máquinas de vapor originales todavía se conservan en el lugar. En las salas de máquinas se ofrece a los visitantes la oportunidad de experimentar con modelos que muestran la tecnología que hay en el puente. También hay algunas fotografías increíbles del Tower Bridge a lo largo de su historia, incluida una imagen reveladora de la estructura de acero del puente antes de instalar el revestimiento de piedra.
