According toCNNreports, the “glass walkway” is built directly above Tower Bridge, allowing visitors to look down at the bustling traffic 42 meters below through the glass floor. You can also enjoy views of red double-decker buses moving along the streets and nearby landmarks, while looking up reveals the expansive city skyline.

If you’re lucky—or have done your homework—you might even catch a glimpse of the busy river traffic on the Thames when the bridge lifts.
