Picture of the day
The
Tower Bridge
, a
bascule bridge
that crosses the
River Thames
in
London
,
England
, at twilight. It is close to the
Tower of London
, which gives it its name. It has become an
iconic symbol
of London and is sometimes mistakenly called
London Bridge
, which is the next bridge upstream. The bridge replaced the
Tower Subway
for carrying pedestrian traffic across the river.
