known as “Big Ben”.

The Tower Bridge was built at the end of the 19th century to match
the medieval style of the fortress. The bridge is functioning perfectly
well for such a great city as modern London. It can be quickly swung
open to let in big ocean ships that can move up the Thames from the
ocean. The territory between the Tower and London bridges is called
the Pool for this reason.
So that pedestrians could
walk along the bridge at
the time its lower part is
open, a pass is made in its
upper part of the bridge
nowdays .

cast from cannon captured from the French.
